Sullivan County 2, St. John Neumann 1
The Griffins picked up their second win of the year, rallying for two runs in the seventh on Tuesday.
"Defensively both teams played extremely well," Sullivan County coach Brian Heisman said. "Sullivan held Neumann until the sixth inning. Bethany Weinhardt caught three line drives at third and Alexis Kiess caught two fly balls at second then topped it off with three assists to first. In the seventh inning Noelle Henninger has a hard hit ground ball to center field, which places her on first. Bethany Weinhardt gets up to bat with no outs with a count of two strikes, swings and hits a fly ball to left center field in the gap. This allows Noelle to score from first and Bethany just made it under the tag at third. Mackenzie Doyle sends her first pitch to third on the ground, which was fumbled and thrown home late, allowing Bethany Weinhardt to score having an RBI and a triple that helped seal the win for Sullivan."
Quincy Fry pitched for the Griffins in the game.
