DUBOIS, Pa. (EYT/D9) – Devon Lauer was sharp and the Clarion baseball team gave the right-hander some breathing room with a three-run fourth inning as the Bobcats moved on the District 9 Class A title game with a 4-0 win over Elk County Catholic at Showers Field on Thursday.

It stayed that way until the fourth when Bryce Brinkley’s RBI single made it 2-0 and Noah Harrison followed with a two-run hit to give the Bobcats a 4-0 lead.
That was more than enough for Lauer.
The Clarion ace gave up six hits and struck out seven over seven innings. He didn’t walk a batter.
Tanner Miller went 2 of 3 with a double for the Bobcats, who will play DuBois Central Catholic at 3 p.m. on Monday at Showers Field.
