Lock-down pitching was the prevalent theme in Monday’s L-L baseball quarterfinal doubleheader at Manheim Township.

In the opener, aces Dillon Good of Ephrata and Mitch Long of Annville-Cleona matched each other pitch-for-pitch in a game that was won by the Mountaineers 3-0 and took just 95 minutes to complete.

Depth may have been the key components for both Hempfield and Penn Manor Monday night with both teams claiming victories in the Lancaster-Lebanon Boys' Volleyball League semifinals at Garden Spot High School.

The Black Knights fashioned a 3-0 sweep of Manheim Township and the Comets topped Ephrata 3-1 to earn a spot in the L-L championship match, slated for 7 p.m. Wednesday at Manheim Township.

Maybe the difference between a senior-laden team and one that is full of sophomores is just what volleyball fans witnessed at Manheim Central Monday night.

The Mounts, with five senior starters, have been through enough matches that they can draw on their experience in tight spots.

The Barons, starting four sophomores and a freshman, haven't yet acquired that extra ingredient to push to overcome a one- or two-point deficit.

As a result, Ephrata defeated Central 3-0 (25-22, 25-19, 25-23) and moved closer to its first Lancaster-Lebanon Boys' Volleyball League Section Two crown.
