Baseball = Mansfield, 1 @ Franklin, 0 – Final (8 inn.)
– Head’s up base running proved to be the difference in the best pitcher’s duel in the Hockomock League this season. Mansfield’s Connor Curtis and Franklin’s Austin Campbell went toe-to-toe, both pitching eight-inning complete games with little damage done by either offense. Mansfield senior Anthony Saraiva reached on an infield single with one out in the top of the eighth and moved to second on a base hit from Matt DeShiro. Both runners advanced on a wild pitch before the Panthers got the second out with a strikeout. After Jake Maydak was intentionally walked to load the bases, Saraiva was able to come racing home for the lone run of the game after a passed ball. Curtis closed the game strong, retiring the side in order — the fifth time in the game — to clinch the 1-0 win. Curtis scattered three hits (all singles) without issuing a walk in a stellar outing, striking out nine for the win. Campbell only gave up four hits and three walks, striking out 13 while going the distance. Sophomore Sean Kryzak had two hits for the Panthers.
Softball = Franklin, 5 @ Mansfield, 6 – Final
– Franklin scored once in the top of the seventh to take a two-run lead into the bottom half of the final frame but the host Hornets had other plans, rallying for three runs including a two-run walk-off hit from Avery Lake to give Mansfield a dramatic win. Franklin’s Sarah Boozang smacked a two-out RBI triple in the top of the seventh to give the Panthers a 5-3 lead. In the bottom half, Julia Marnikovic led off with a single, advanced on a single from Jill Koppy, and came home to score on a base hit from Molly Kucharski. Callie Lake reached on a bunt single to load the bases and Avery Lake sent one to center to score the tying and winning runs for the Hornets. Marnikovic, Koppy, and Dani Jameson each had two hits on the day for Mansfield, who had a 1-0 lead after scoring in the first inning. Franklin tied it in the third on an inside-the-park home run from Sophia Sacramone and then took the lead with a three-run fourth, highlighted by back-to-back doubles from Boozang (4-for-4, two RBI, one run) and Carly Pellegri-Johnson and a sac fly from Marley Allen. Jameson earned the win for Mansfield, scattering seven this with a pair of strikeouts.
Boys Lacrosse = Franklin, 14 @ Milford, 5 – Final
– Franklin’s lead was just 4-2 after a quarter of play before the Panthers’ defense denied the Hawks for two straight quarters in a 14-5 win on the road. The Hawks were able to keep pace for the first frame but Franklin blanked Milford in both the second and third quarters, staking a 7-2 lead at halftime and a 10-2 advantage going into the fourth. Seven different Franklin players found the back of the net led by a hat trick from Eddie O’Brien. CJ Perro, Drew Hansen, and Dylan McEvoy each scored twice while Anthony Lamapsona, Jordan Gaspar, Damien Tarentino, and Quinn Kielty each scored once.
