Greene 22, Delhi 0 (5 innings)
Greene 11, Hancock 1
GREENE – Coming off its first loss of the season last weekend, Greene swept a pair of games from Delhi and Hancock Tuesday by a combined 33-1 score.
In the opener, the Trojans scored 10 runs in the second inning to open up a big advantage. Caitlin Willis was a perfect 4-for-4 with two runs scored and three RBI. Taylor Ellis had two hits including a solo homer, and Rebecca Hanrahan finished with three hits. Hanrahan and Morgan Hurlburt combined on a five-inning no-hitter striking out nine total players and walking four. It was the Trojans’ third no-hitter of the season.
In the second contest, Greene scored eight runs in the bottom of the first to jump on Hancock early. The Trojans rapped out four singles in its first at-bat with Willis driving in a pair of runs and Rachel Turner blasting an RBI triple. Willis finished 2-for-2, Hanrahan had two hits and three RBI, and Ellis finished 2-for-4.
“Coming off last weekend, I thought we were too passive at the plate,” said Greene coach Rick Smith. “We concentrated on attacking the ball early in the game. When we take too many pitches, we get in trouble.”

Canastota 10, Sherburne-Earlville 1
CANASTOTA – Canastota scored all but one of its runs over the first three innings, and left-handed hitter Jessica Patterelli accounted for much of the damage in the Marauders’ loss to the Raiders Tuesday.
Patterelli went 4-for-4 with seven RBI. Patterelli homered twice and added a double. She stroked and two-run shot in the four-run second inning, and added a solo round-tripper in the sixth. “Canastota can really make it happen with the bats,” said S-E coach Michelle Parker. “They were teeing off from the opening inning.”

GREENE – Greene left the bases loaded in the opening two innings, but also pushed across five runs during those frames to take command of Tuesday’s game with Delhi.
Greene freshmen pitchers Josh Hurlburt and Nick Viglucci split the pitching duties over six innings with each young hurler striking out four and walking one.
Matt Jones had a two-run single in the second inning for Greene and finished 3-for-5 with four RBI.
