PLATTSBURGH — The Lake Placid baseball team’s hopes of making a state playoff run ended Wednesday evening as the Blue Bombers fell 15-8 to the North Warren Cougars at Plattsburgh High School in the NYSPHSAA Class D subregional round.

Down a run, North Warren recorded six runs in the fourth inning to take a 9-4 lead. The Cougars then outscored Lake Placid 6-4 in the final three innings to secure the win.

North Warren, the Section 2 champions, will now advance to the NYSPHSAA Class D regional, where it will face Section X’s Parishville-Hopkinton on Saturday at a site yet to be determined.

The Cougars’ starting pitcher, Wyatt Jennings, recorded 11 strikeouts while allowing 10 hits and eight runs in 6 2/3 innings. Owen Scheafer struck out the final batter of the contest for North Warren, which improved to 12-5-1 overall.

Jon Caito started on the mound for Lake Placid and struck out two through three innings. The Blue Bombers’ Jarrett Mihill and Owen Lawrence split time pitching in the final four innings. Mihill struck out one, and Lawrence recorded two strikeouts.

Mihill led Lake Placid’s offense with three hits and two RBIs, while Lawrence had a pair of hits. Caito, Hyler Isham, Vann Morrelli, Will Landriault and Max Hyman each recorded one hit.

The Blue Bombers jumped out to a 4-3 lead after scoring three runs in the third inning — two off balks. The Cougars then rallied with their six runs in the fourth. Lake Placid did fight back with three runs in the fifth but were unable to mount the comeback.

“They could have very easily just packed it up and gone home, but they didn’t,” Blue Bombers’ head Brian Brandes told members of the media on Wednesday. “And they wouldn’t have, and they didn’t do that all year long. They were going to battle right to the end.”

North Warren’s Maceo Matson, Will Lindsley and CJ Barlow recorded three hits each to lead their team’s 16-hit performance. The Cougars’ George Hilton and Brodie Rooker each had two hits.

On Wednesday, six well-decorated Blue Bomber seniors — Caito, Hyman, Isham, Landriault, Mihill and Morrelli — closed out their high school baseball careers. Brandes told the Enterprise on Sunday that its going to be hard to let them go because they’ve all been with the team since they were freshmen.

Through the past four seasons, those six players have combined for an overall record of 48-18, as well as winning two Section VII, Class D titles and three Mountain and Valley Athletic Conference titles.

Lake Placid finished its season with an 11-6 record.
