MMI Prep clinches District 2 Class A baseball championship in dramatic comeback
The Sabers of MMI Prep entered the District 2 Class A championship facing a 4-0 hole against Susquehanna, but the team refused to surrender. A flurry of walks, a hit batsman and a series of defensive miscues by the opposition set the stage for a rally that began in the fourth inning and gathered momentum through the sixth. Relief pitcher Ben Drobnock delivered three-plus innings of scoreless baseball, preserving the lead while his bat contributed a pivotal hit that drove in the tying run. The bottom of the lineup stepped up with clutch singles and aggressive base running that turned a tight contest into a 5-4 victory. Coach Charlie Karchner lauded the squad’s resilience, emphasizing that the team’s focus and unity were the true catalysts behind the comeback. Looking ahead, the Sabers will meet the District 3 runner‑up Fairfield in the opening round of the PIAA tournament, carrying the momentum of a hard‑won championship into the next challenge.
