Softball Splits Two With Hill
Mercersburg defeated Hill 6-2 in game one of a MAPL softball doubleheader, but then the host Rams bounced back to take game two by the same 6-2 score May 6.
The Blue Storm took advantage of several walks and errors to score six runs in the first two innings of the first game. Game two was scoreless for the first three innings, but Hill banged out thirteen hits in the game and scored six runs in the final four frames to get the win. Larkin Fletcher '26 had two of Mercersburg's four hits in the second game, and Quinn Caretti '24 pitched all fourteen innings, giving up just three earned runs.
Mercersburg (6-8 overall, 2-4 MAPL) faces McConnellsburg (PA) high school on Tuesday, May 9 at 4:30 pm on Spider Field.
