    LEWISTOWN — Last spring, Punxsutawney ended Lewistown’s state championship quest with a 7-0 win in the PIAA Class AAA quarterfinals.


    Thursday afternoon, the Chucks denied the Panthers another title — only this time in a lot more suspenseful fashion.


    A four-run seventh helped Punxsutawney wipe out a 7-2 deficit and earn an 8-7 Central Penn League victory at Rec Park.


    The loss denied Lewistown a chance to clinch the league title outright, though if Williamsport loses to Philipsburg-Osceola in its final CPL game next week, the Panthers would still claim the crown.
