Villa Walks-Off Warren; Eisenhower, Youngsville Fall at Home

April 7, 2021

ERIE, Pa. – Hayley Dever’s 2-run single in the eighth inning was the walk-off winner in Villa Maria’s 3-2 win over Warren.

With one out in the eighth, Warren thought it had picked off a Villa runner at third. The runner was ruled safe, and the call upheld on appeal. Dragons pitcher Kelsey Stuart struck out the next batter, but Dever stepped in next and hit the game-winner to right center.

The teams were tied at 1-1 after seven. Rylie Yeager led off Warren’s half of the eighth with a single. Yeager advanced to third on a sac bunt then scored when the throw to third missed the mark, to put Warren ahead 2-1.
