The Latrobe Jethawks put an exclamation point on their undefeated District 31 American Legion season, ousting Murrysville 7-0 on Wednesday to capture the league championship.

Playing at Greater Latrobe High School, the Jethawks outlasted the Eagles in a game that included a rain delay and was also halted when the field lights went out.

In the process, Latrobe secured its sixth D31 title, and the third in four years, as the Jethawks went back-to-back in 2021 and 22. Latrobe posted a record of 16-0-3 in league play during the regular season, and went a perfect 5-0 in the postseason.

Cole Short worked into the sixth inning to earn the win for Latrobe, allowing just three hits and walking four, while racking up five strikeouts. Jack Stynchula posted two innings of relief to complete the shutout, permitting just one hit.

Offensively, Haden Sierocky paced the Jethawks, as he compiled a pair of hits with three RBIs, while Erick Batista had a single, a walk, and scored a run. Max Bernadowski posted three hits in the setback for Murrysville.

Latrobe advances to the Region 7 Tournament in Claysburg where it will face Bedford on Saturday while Murrysville opens the tournament against Claysburg.
