Chase Waller is one of District 4's youngest coaches. But at times the last two years, the 26-year-old has felt the aging process rapidly accelerating. His South Williamsport baseball team has taken him on some wild rides during that time, although is hair has not yet turned gray. Still, ...
Parker Bennett was not necessarily thinking strategy when he took the mound late against Warrior Run and relieved Briar Persing. Really, only one thought occupied his mind. “My mindset is don’t screw it up for Briar,” Bennett said. “I know Briar has worked his butt off since ...
