The Powell Pioneers were eliminated from Northwest Regional play 6-5 at the hands of Kennewick, Wash., Tuesday afternoon. Powell batters were held to just one hit through seven innings, but roared to life in the eighth.
Grant Geiser crushed a double to the warning track for three RBIs to put the Pioneers on the board and halve a 6-0 deficit. Tyler Dahlgren added a two-out RBI, and Gianluca Giarrizzo pinch-hit and brought in another run early in the ninth.
Powell was able to get runners on second and third, but was unable to duplicate Friday's magic as the Pioneers finish their season 48-17 and in third place at the 2009 Northwest Region Legion baseball tournament in Salt Lake City.
