LITTLE LEAGUE: Ashland 9-11’s blank SPN, win District 24 title

SCHOENTOWN – In decisive fashion, Ashland’s 9-11 Little League All-Stars won the District 24 title and punched their ticket to sectionals next week.

Ashland took an early 1-0 lead over SPN at the Schoentown field and never looked back.

The game went the six-inning distance, as Ashland came one run shy of ending the game in the fifth, holding a 9-0 lead at that point.

In the top of the sixth, Ashland added a few more runs, taking a 14-0 lead into the final frame.

SPN had no answers for the Ashland squad, falling 14-0.

Ashland moves on to sectionals next Friday in Cressona.

The championship squad was welcomed back to northern Schuylkill with a parade through Ashland, flanked by Ashland Fire Dept. apparatus and Chief Phillip Groody.
