Lebanon County H.S. Highlights: May 2


 

Game of the day

Lebanon softball 7, Ephrata 6

The Cedars earned their first win of the season in walk-off fashion thanks to three runs in the bottom of the seventh Monday. Lebanon's Ashley Kropf and Katelyn Roth each knocked in a pair of runs, and Aurianis Lassalle went 4-for-4 with three runs.

On the mound, Cedars starter Maggie Hinkel tossed 3 1/3 innings before handing the ball off to Roth, who earned the win and surrendered two runs. Roth also cracked three hits at the plate.

Lebanon's seven runs tied for the most it's scored in a game all season, surpassed only by the nine it plated in a four-run loss at McCaskey on April 22.

Player of the day

Isaac Wengert, Northern Lebanon

The Vikings' senior ace pulled through for them yet again in a must-win game against Cocalico. Wengert fired a complete game, striking out five and walking one in Northern Lebanon's eventual 3-1 home victory. His only run allowed came around in the top of the third, while the Eagles totaled just five hits.
