The Monsignor McCoy Senior Varsity team won the Alberta Premier Baseball League Championship on Thursday night.

They beat the back-to-back previous champions, Catholic Central High School Cougars, 13-11 in Lethbridge at Lloyd Nolan Yard.

It wasn’t looking promising early for the Colts, as the Cougars jumped out to a 5-1 lead after the first two innings.

A scoreless third inning was followed by a massive nine-run top of the fourth for the Colts as they jumped out to a 10-5 lead.

After exchanging a run each in the fifth inning, the Cougars scored five in the bottom of the seventh to tie the game at 11 and send it to extra innings.

The Colts would get a pair of runs in the eighth inning, before shutting the Colts down in the bottom half to secure the title.
