OLEAN, N.Y. — Jamestown opened the 2026 Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League season in style over the weekend, capped by Saturday’s 14-6 victory over Olean.

Twenty-four hours after downing the Oilers 13-3 at Diethrick Park, the Tarp Skunks pounded out 14 hits at Bradner Stadium, including three by Grant Moore (double); and two apiece by Paul Dulanto (home run, four RBIs), Caleb Jordan and Heath Fetchik.

Starter Tait Johnson, one of seven Jamestown pitchers, got the win. The hurlers, who yielded just four hits, were aided by an offense that scored six runs in the first inning, three in the fourth, four in the eighth and one in the ninth.

For the Oilers, who stranded 12 base runners, Thomas Bates had an RBI double. Jake Manendo took the loss.

The Tarp Skunks will try to make it three straight wins when they meet Olean again Tuesday at Diethrick Park. First pitch is set for 6:30 p.m.
