In a commanding conference performance, Penn State Shenango combined an elite pitching effort with a relentless offensive attack to secure a 10-0 victory over Penn State New Kensington. The contest, held at Pemberton Park, saw Shenango control the pace from the first inning, ultimately ending the game early via a dominant scoring surge in the 6th.

The story of the game was the masterclass on the mound by Tyler Houk, who tossed a 6-inning no-hitter. Houk was nearly untouchable, striking out eight batters and allowing only one walk while facing 21 total batters. His efficiency kept New Kensington off the basepaths and provided the foundation for the offense to take over.

Offensively, Shenango wasted no time, plating three runs in the opening frame and another in the 2nd. The bats remained active throughout the afternoon, totaling 12 hits and taking advantage of four walks. The pressure reached a boiling point in the 6th inning when Shenango drove in three final runs to seal the double-digit shutout. Anthony Miller was the primary catalyst, reaching base three times and scoring two runs, while Jason Malley provided the heavy lifting with three RBIs.
