May 3, 2016
Softball
Starting off the week, softball played away at Central York high school on Monday and unfortunately lost their game 2-7. As the week progressed, the softball team hit another rough patch when they lost their game 4-2 against Spring Grove on Wednesday. The final game was Saturday, but it was canceled due to rain.The team hopes for a win in their next game on May 2.
Junior player Mackenzie Gibson felt that losing their games this week can not keep them from moving forward.
“On Thursday, we did not come out on top with a win like we wanted to, but I do not think that the score represents how we played. We had a lot of solid hits off their pitcher.Unfortunately, it was just one of those days where we hit right to them. We have been a strong team and have been successful this season, so I am excited to keep that momentum for the last few games,” said Gibson.
Baseball
Beginning the week with a strong lead, baseball won 6-2 against opponent Central York. Baseball continued by playing a tough competitor, Spring Grove, on Wednesday. The team came up short with only 4 home runs against Spring Grove’s 6 runs.

To wrap up the week, the team played Central Dauphin and won but had to fight for the win of 15-8.
Senior Tess Clancy, the goalie for the team, had the perfect view of what was going on from the net.
“At the game we faced a lot of adversity, in the first half we had two players get a yellow card just a few seconds apart. After that, another player was out for the game the whole second half. We had to face a lot, losing a top player, but we overcame the game and won 15-8,” said Clancy.
