Lebanon County HS Highlights - April 7


 

Game of the Day 

Northern Lebanon softball 6, Cocalico 5

It's still really early, but so far the Northern Lebanon softball team is the feel-good story of the Lebanon County spring sports season.

The Vikings continued their surprisingly hot start on Friday with a dramatic 6-5 walk-off win over Cocalico in a Section 3 encounter in Fredericksburg.

Down 4-1 heading into the bottom of the sixth, the Vikings (5-1) rallied to within a run on RBIs by Kaylee Mauser and Baylee Madilia, then won it in the seventh via an RBI hit by Sydney Mengel and Haley Fegley's walk-off two-run single.

Emma Kelliher picked up the pitching win, striking out seven and walking none in a complete game effort. Kelliher also scattered five hits and surrendered only one earned run.
