Chambersburg coach Chris Skultety said, “We played very poorly over the weekend and got served a couple of pieces of humble pie. But I love the way the girls said enough was enough and showed up today.

“We read an article (about Waynesboro) that gave us a little motivation, and I think this was our most complete game this year — pitching, hitting, defense and base running were all on today.”

Mackenzie Stake went the distance and limited the Maidens (9-4) to just five hits, including two by Mac Miller. She struck out six and walked two.

For the Trojans (12-3) Haiden Brookens had three RBIs, Haley Privett was 2-for-4 with a double and two runs knocked in, Kirsten Johnson was 2-for-2 with two RBIs and Alyssa Wenger also had two runs batted in.
