On Monday, the Panthers took on rival Corona Centennial in the first game of a three-game series to decide the Big VIII League title.
Down two runs early, Corona tied it on a two-run triple from Josh Springer in the fourth inning, then added runs on RBI singles from Billy Carson and Daniel Rivera. Corona (20-2, 10-0) came away with a 7-2 victory at home to open a two-game lead over the Huskies (18-4, 8-2).
Sam Burgess hit a two-run home run in the sixth.
Freshman pitcher Mason Sims threw 4 1/3 innings and Jake Skelskey finished with 2 2/3 scoreless innings of relief. Adam Magday hit a two-run single in the fourth for Centennial.
Eastvale Roosevelt 3, Norco 2: Braden Annett had two RBIs in Roosevelt’s Big VIII League win.
Damien 8, Rancho Cucamonga 0: Andrew Carter struck out eight in five scoreless innings and Nikko Paoletto hit a three-run home run to lead Damien.
San Pedro 2, Banning 1: The Pilots had the potential tying and winning runs at second and third with two outs in the bottom of the seventh, but Anthony Solis got a groundout to finish a complete game for San Pedro. He struck out six and walked one.
