Eagle River celebrates their 1-0 victory over Service during the Alaska Legion Baseball state championship game at Mulcahy Stadium on Tuesday.
According to Legion records, it was the first no-hitter at the Alaska Legion state tournament since 1992, when East’s Trajan Langdon, Sean Snowball and Ryan Hiller threw a combined no-hitter in an 8-1 win over Kodiak. For the second year in a row, Eagle River and Service were the last teams left standing at the end of the season. Last year’s state championship bout took an extra inning to decide after the Cougars nearly mounted a comeback.
Alex Mullen, one of the group of seniors who graduated in the spring, received the big stick award for the best hitting percentage throughout the tournament. “It’s kind of ironic that he loses his no-hitter earlier this year on one run because of an error by a catcher, but at the end of the day, baseball is baseball,” Bill Lierman said. “Going into this game, you knew both teams are throwing their No. 1 , you knew it was going to be a close game, and it was just a flip of coin whoever was going to win.
Liam was able to capitalize on a wild pitch that whizzed past the head of Service catcher and 2023 Alaska high school Gatorade Player of the Year Coen Niclai in the bottom of the third inning.
