Shenango Capitalizes on Miscues to Dominate Prince George’s CC
On March 8, 2026, Penn State Shenango secured a commanding 10-3 victory over Prince George's Community College (PGCC) in the first game of their doubleheader in Largo, Maryland. The Lions combined sharp plate discipline with aggressive baserunning to capitalize on four PGCC errors, putting the game out of reach by the 4th inning.
Game Summary:
Shenango wasted no time setting the tone, jumping out to a 2-0 lead in the 1st inning. Anthony Miller delivered a clutch triple to right field to score Dante Micaletti before crossing the plate himself on a passed ball. While the Owls managed to scratch a run back in the bottom of the first via a double play, Shenango's defense and pitching kept the momentum firmly on the side of the visitors.
The Lions blew the game open in the top of the fourth, scoring four unearned runs. A series of defensive miscues by PGCC—including errors by the catcher, shortstop, and center fielder—allowed Jason Malley, John Perry, JA Quahliero, and Troy Bachman to cross the plate. By the time Micaletti singled to drive in Bachman, the lead had swelled to 7-1.
PGCC attempted a rally in the bottom of the fourth, taking advantage of a Shenango error to score two runs on RBI singles. However, Shenango starting pitcher Nate Evans and reliever Remington Hart shut the door for the remainder of the contest, allowing only four total hits across seven innings.
