Harrison Central and Wheeling Central face-off on Thursday in high school baseball action.
Harrison Central and Wheeling Central are set to face-off on Thursday in high school baseball action. The Huskies are on a quest for their first-ever state championship after falling in the state championship game last season in Akron. During its seven-game winning streak to reach the Division III state final, Harrison Central had rallied for victories in four of those games, including coming from seven runs down to win the regional against Wheelersburg. Similar to the regional, Harrison Central found itself down 7-0 after two innings in the championship game. Unlike the regional, the Huskies were never able to stop the bleeding and it eventually resulted in a 10-1 loss to Apple Creek Waynedale, which successfully defended its 2022 state championship.

Harrison Central senior Treston Nemeth went 0-2 in the state championship game last season, with his final at bat being a pop fly in the sixth inning.
“This run was unbelievable and I wouldn’t have wanted to do it with any other group of people,” Nemeth said. “We got beat and sometimes that happens. But, overall, this is something you usually only dream about.”
Nemeth was named the Division III State Player of the Year last season, on top of being named All-Ohio three times in his high school career.
