There’s a new champion in the Suburban League West. 

After starting 7-0 in league play, the Pioneer baseball team needed a win over Hopkins Academy on Monday as well as a Frontier victory over Hampshire to seal up the league title, as every team would have three league losses with two games to go. 

The Redhawks pulled out a victory while Panthers freshman Jackson Glazier went the distance, striking out one and allowing five hits to lift Pioneer to a 2-0 victory. 

“It feels good,” Panthers coach Kevin Luippold said. “The boys are happy. It’s a testament to how hard they’ve worked. They knew they’d be going against really good competition, every game in this league. It feels like every one has been a tough one and a lot have come down to final pitch. It’s a good feeling for the boys knowing we can compete with anybody.” 

Both Pioneer (13-2, 8-0) runs came in the second inning. Evan Tsipenyuk tallied two hits while Ethan Mauthe and Jackson Campbell rounded out the Panthers’ four hits on Monday. 

Frontier 11, Hampshire 7 — Grayson Loos blasted three hits while Jack Conlon smashed a pair of doubles as the Redhawks pulled out a Suburban League West triumph over the Raiders in Westhampton Monday. 

Nico Fasulo tallied a pair of hits, Rosco Palmer and Wyatt Edes both recorded a hit and two RBIs while Tyler Cusson and Porter Hall each had a hit and an RBI for Frontier. Cusson led the way with six strikeouts on the mound. 

 Greenfield 6, Easthampton 4 — Trailing 4-2 going into the sixth, Luca Siano cracked  a two-run double to tie the game for the Green Wave. Deven Dubie blasted a triple to score Malik Moore before John Marchefka grounded out to score Dubie, helping Greenfield earn a comeback Suburban League West win in Easthampton Monday. 

Siano finished with two hits for the Green Wave. Arthur Fitzpatrick pitched the first six innings before Caleb Thomas came on in the seventh to get the win. 

Drury 11, Athol 4 — The Blue Devils capitalized on some defensive mistakes from the Bears in the third and scored seven runs in the frame, which propelled Drury to an independent win in North Adams Monday.

“It was good that Hannah threw the no-hitter,” Franklin Tech coach Joe Gamache said. “We got a couple timely hits. It took us a little bit to get the bats going but they broke through in the fourth and it led to a big fifth inning.” 

Kylee Gamache hit an RBI double in the fifth that helped the Eagles take a 2-0 lead going into the sixth, when Tech erupted for six runs. Hannah Gilbert and Cordelia Guerin each drove in two with a base hit, Guerin’s a double, while Skylei Lapan added an RBI single for Franklin Tech.
