Powell Advances to State
July 25, 2009 by Coach Schoonover
The Powell Pioneers advanced to the Wyoming State Tournament on Friday with a big win over Gillette Roughriders 8 to 5 at Lansing Field.
Evan Cunningham and Scotty Jameson had a pitchers duel through six innings as Gillette lead 1 to 0. Powell had a huge inning in the seventh as they plated seven runs to go ahead. Gillette would threaten in the bottom of the eighth with four runs of their own, but Powell would hold off the Gillette threat.
Scotty Jameson worked a complete game for the Pioneers picking up the win and Cunningham took the loss for the Roughriders.
Powell will face the Casper Oilers at 7:30pm on Saturday.
