Pennsylvania team from Clinton County is heading to the Little League World Series

FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES

Pennsylvania is heading to the Little League World Series after defeating New Jersey.

Wyatt Koch hit a three-run home run in the bottom of the fourth, helping lead Keystone Little League of Clinton County, Pa., to a 5-2 win over the Paramus, N.J., team today in Bristol, Conn.

Pennsylvania finished the tournament 6-0, winning the Mid-Atlantic Championship. The team now returns home for the Little League World Series, which starts Thursday in nearby South Williamsport, Pa.

The scoring came quickly today after a scoreless three innings were rain-delayed Sunday.

The New Jersey team pulled within one run in the top of the fifth with a two-run homer from Nick DeNigris.

But Pennsylvania closer Tyler McCloskey added a run in the top of the sixth and Alex Garbrick followed with an RBI.
