Junior Caden Bonsell threw a 3-hit complete game against JV

The Tyrone Golden Eagles are 2-0 after their 7-1 win yesterday at home against Juniata Valley.

Junior Caiden Bonsell had a no-hitter going through five innings in his first varsity start.

Bonsell got the complete game win, giving up only three hits, all in the sixth. He struck out 5 batters and only walked one, giving up one run.

“It was pretty cool. It felt great being out there. My fastball and my curveball were working for me. I threw a couple of changeups too,” said Bonsell.

Bonsell’s only mistake of the day might have been talking about his no-hit bid between innings.

“He broke up his own no-no by mentioning it in the dugout in the sixth inning,” said Tyrone senior pitcher/outfielder Aiden Coleman.

The Tyrone bats came alive as well, putting up 7 runs against the Hornets.

Senior Luke Brooks led the team with 3 hits and 3 RBIs. Coleman also had 2 hits that scored 2 more runners.

Juniata Valley got their lone run in the 6th inning when Jake Johnson hit a solid ball that found the outfield, scoring the runner at second base.

The Golden Eagles look to continue their winning streak against a tough Mountain League opponent at Philipsburg today, April 5th.
