SOFTBALL
Greencastle-Antrim 7, Boiling Springs 6: A 3-run bottom of the sixth gave the Blue Devils a 7-3 lead, then they sweated out a 3-run rally in the seventh by the Bubblers to pick up a Mid Penn Colonial victory at home Monday afternoon.

Kindal Rice

Greencastle (12-3, 10-2 MPC) got two hits each from its top three batters — Caroline Logsdon, Alexis Jones and Meadow Gambacurta, and Gambacurta knocked in a pair of runs.

In the sixth inning, Logsdon singled and went to second when Jones bunted for a hit. Both then came home on a triple by Gambacurta. Makayla Jerin then brought in Gambacurta with a base hit.

Kylie Kerns, Kindal Rice and Kaidyn Zimmerman also had hits and one RBI for G-A.

Mackenzie Wingert pitched the first 5 innings to earn the win for the Blue Devils, allowing 9 hits but only 2 earned runs. Paiton Gordon pitched the last two innings for a save.

The Bubblers scored three runs on 2 walks and 2 hits, plus a fielder’s choice in the seventh, but the potential game-tying run was thrown out trying to go from second to third base by centerfielder Kylie Kerns to end the game.

But Greencastle (8-8, 5-7 MPC) rallied with a 5-spot in the top of the fifth inning. Jarek Szaflarski led off with a single and Carter McCauley reached on an error. Ethan Ford singled in a run and both runners moved up on a passed ball. Parker Funk’s base hit brought in two more runs.

After an out, Garrett Decker walked. Briggs Remenick hit a groundball single through the shortstop hole for a run, and the last run scored on a Bubbler error.
