Mike Vukovcan The Hopewell HS baseball team closed out their regular season by traveling to Washington Wild Things Park to take on West Allegheny in a non-section game.
Behind a masterful start by Payton Korker, solid defense and timely hitting, Hopewell defeated WA, 4-0. The Vikings finish the regular season with a record of 14-5, a remarkable turnaround from a year ago when they finished 5-14.
Hopewell softball and youth baseball is sponsored by Lisa McCoy, your neighborhood State Farm agent.
Hopewell will find out this afternoon their seeding and opponent this afternoon when the WPIAL releases the playoff brackets.
Having the opportunity to play at Wild Things Park is a neat opportunity for these kids, something started by HC Morgan Singletary years ago.
