NORWAY — The visiting Bark River-Harris Broncos scored eight runs in the top half of the final inning in game one of a doubleheader to come from behind to defeat Norway 12-5 at Mike Maule Field on Monday.

The host Knights powered past the Broncos in game two of the Skyline Central Conference twin bill, 17-5 in four innings.

“We did enough to have a lead and we couldn’t get the three outs we needed. Give credit to a well coached, experienced Bark River team. They put pressure on us and we lost our composure,” said Norway head coach Tony Adams.

Catcher Chase Carlson had 2 RBI’s for Norway, while shortstop Nick Javurek, who cracked a triple, had a game-high three for the Broncos. Zack Robinette, Carter Zawacki and Josiah Javurek each had a pair of RBI’s for BR-H.

Zawacki also hit a triple for BR-H.

In game two, Carlson led Norway with 4 RBI’s and Michael Peterson had three hits including a double. Also for Norway, sophomore Tyler Neuens had 3 RBI’s while teammates Lorenzoni, Bray and Jake Baciak each drove in a pair of runs

Max Hall toed the mound for the Broncos to start the game, with Zawacki and Keaton Bartozsek also pitching.

Lorenzoni started the game on the hill for Norway, with freshman Ian Popp pitching in relief and taking the win.

“We had lots of contributions in game two and our energy level was up. Doubleheaders are long day and we handled it well today. We are making progress in several areas as the season progresses,” Adams said.

Norway returns to action this afternoon as they make the short trip to take on non-conference foe Niagara.
