●The undefeated Varsity softball team rallied from behind to beat Newfane in extra innings last night. The game was tied at 16 in the top of the ninth inning when Ashley Koziej singled, scoring two runs. The team flipped the game in the fourth scoring seven runs on three hits to take the lead 10-7. Addison Massaro singled to drive in two of those runs.
Newfane came back to tie the score in the bottom of the 5th. Then in the top of the 6th Shannon Esmond tripled to left field and Kenadee Jonathan hit an inside the park home run, each scoring three runs.
