DUNKIRK — Dunkirk senior Dylan Bankoski, who played his first game of the season Monday after returning from a broken wrist, homered in the bottom of the first inning to jump-start Dunkirk to a 7-2 nonleague baseball win over Frewsburg on Tuesday at Al Stuhlmiller Field.

Bankoski finished 2 for 3 with a walk and two runs scored for the Marauders (16-3, 9-1 CCAA D1). Greg Orcutt was 2 for 3 with an RBI and two runs scored while Anthony Piede doubled and drove in a pair of runs.

Orcutt tossed three no-hit innings with seven strikeouts. Anthony Cosme threw two innings of one-hit ball, allowing two runs while striking out four. Josh Lemanski got the final three outs with a pair of strikeouts.

Dunkirk took a 4-0 lead in the first inning. After Bankoski’s two-out home run, Henry Leone walked, Orcutt singled and Cosme walked to load the bases. Thomas Shaffer was then hit by a pitch to force in a run and Piede hit a two-run double.

The Bears (15-3, 14-0 CCAA D2) made it 4-2 in the top of the fifth inning. Riley LaCross led off with a walk, went to second on a wild pitch and advanced to third on an error. After a walk to Chase Haglund, LaCross scored on an error and Haglund scored on Mason Eckman’s RBI single.

Paul Trippy walked with the bases loaded in the bottom of the frame to give Dunkirk a 5-2 lead.

In the Marauders’ sixth inning, Bankoski singled and scored on Orcutt’s sacrifice fly before Shaffer eventually hit another sacrifice fly.

LaCross threw the middle three innings for Frewsburg, striking out seven while allowing one hit and one run.

FREDONIA

NO-HITS LAKE SHORE

FREDONIA — A day after Ashton Putney set a school and Chautauqua County record with 19 strikeouts, four Fredonia pitchers combined for a no-hitter in the Hillbillies 17-3 nonleague win over Lake Shore.

Luca Gullo, Kevin Brown, A.J. Kinney and Brady Helmer tossed the no-hitter while combining for just three strikeouts and four walks.

Gullo threw the first two innings, striking out two, and left with a 15-0 lead. Brown — in his first career pitching appearance, walked the first three batters he faced, then retired the next three he faced, but a sacrifice fly and a pair of wild pitches plated a pair of Lake Shore (3-12, 3-9 ECIC D3) runs.

Kinney worked a clean fourth inning before Helmer worked the fifth, allowing a run to score on an error after a walk.

In a four-run Fredonia first inning, Putney led off with a triple and Gullo hit an RBI fielder’s choice before Andrew Cowan was hit by the 27th pitch of his career, tying the Section VI record. Gullo and Cowan scored on Colin Crowell’s two-run single and Crowell later scored on a Matt Cowan sacrifice fly.

The Hillbillies (10-8, 7-3 CCAA D1) added 11 runs in the second inning. Gullo and Andrew Cowan singled before Crowell walked to load the bases. Kinney hit a sacrifice fly and Brown reached on an RBI fielder’s choice before Putney hit a three-run, bases-clearing triple. Gullo followed with an RBI single, Kinney was later hit by a pitch with the bases loaded, Helmer hit an RBI single and Brown hit an RBI double.

In Fredonia’s two-run third inning, Brady Crawford singled, Putney hit an RBI triple and Gullo hit a sacrifice fly.

Putney finished 3 for 4 with three triples, four RBIs and three runs scored; Helmer was 3 for 4 with a double, two RBIs and a run scored; Gullo was 2 for 3 with three runs scored, two RBIs and two stolen bases; Crowell singled, scored three times and drove in two runs; Andrew Cowan scored three times; Colin Luce had two hits and a run scored; and Brown doubled and drove in two runs.

The Section VI record for strikeouts in a game is 20, set by North Collins’ Bob Hammond in 1960 and Wilson’s Tyler Johnson in 2022.

The only other pitchers to have 19 strikeouts in a seven-inning game in Section VI history were Akron’s Zach Jordan in 2011 and Maryvale’s Shane Latshaw in 2008.
