July 10, 1986 — Lehighton rallies to gain a 7-6 Lehigh Valley Legion victory over Northwestern. Trailing 4-1 in the fifth inning, Tim Frey and Tom Chapman both single in front of Billy Fauzio’s three-run homer that ties the game. Later in the frame, Matt Lipics beats out an infield single to allow Brian Scherer to cross with the go-ahead run. After Northwestern knots the score, Lehighton plates a pair of runs in the sixth with Ken Snerr providing the key hit in the inning. Chapman goes the distance on the mound to earn the win.
