Scranton Prep scored twice in the first three minutes of Tuesday's first-round game at Harold L. Bolig Memorial Field, and the Seals never recovered. kAm|24<6J {J?6EE 2DD:DE65 @?

MIFFLINBURG — Two 15-run wins in the regular season over Milton, and one could imagine top-seed Mifflinburg opening the District 4 Class 3A playoffs with a bit of a letdown against the Black Panthers on Tuesday.
