Seniors Kevin Barron, Eric Lane, and Justin Gregorio led the Hatboro-Horsham Hatters to a 3-2 extra inning win on Monday over the host Pennridge Rams.

The Hatters won in dramatic fashion as they answered back matching single run tallies by the Rams twice and then held on to the lead provided by a Barron 8th inning homerun.

Pennridge struck first when they scored 1 run in the first inning when Tommy Nuneviller singled, advanced to third on a Danny Long double and then scored on a David Tatoian RBI ground out. The Hatters answered back when Barron doubled, advanced to third on a fly out by Alec Blyler and scored on a sac fly by Justin Gregorio.

Pennridge took a 2-1 lead in the 4th inning when Horne singled, advanced to second on a balk and scored on a 2-out single by Danny Long. The Hatters again answered back when Barron singled, advanced to third on a Blyler sac bunt on which there was an error that set up first and third, and Gregorio got him in with another sac fly.

The Hatters took the lead for good in the 8th when Barron blasted a homerun to left field to put the Hatters up 3-2 and make a winner out of senior Eric Lane.

Lane pitched 7 innings allowing 2 earned runs on 6 hits while striking out 10 and walking none. Senior Ryan Murphy came on to earn the save in the 7th inning.

The Hatters (11-7 Overall, 10-3 SOL Continental) will travel to North Penn (11-2 SOL Continental) on Wednesday with a share of the SOL Continental Title on the line.
