MILFORD

BASEBALL

June 7: No. 3 Plymouth 5, No. 6 Milford 3

The Spartan bats were silenced by strong Plymouth pitching, as Milford was limited to just two hits. Despite this, the Spartans still managed to produce three runs and hang around in the game. Seth Hopkins had one of the hits, a solo home run. The other two Milford runs were produced by walks. On the hill, Mason Gaudette took the loss, allowing four runs in three innings.

Coach Steve Claire is already looking toward next season.

“Very proud of the way we worked this season,” he said. “Looking forward to getting back out there next spring.”

SOFTBALL

June 4: No. 9 Milford 2, No. 8 Kennett 1

Delaney Parker was outstanding for the Spartans, as she went all seven innings, scattering three hits, striking out nine, and allowing just one run in the Division II preliminary round. At the plate, Parker was 1 for 2 with a walk. Milford picked up both of their runs in the fourth inning, with the winning run scored by Erin Tyrrell.

June 7: No. 1 Coe-Brown 9, No. 9 Milford 7

The Spartans came up just short of an upset, as the team rallied to put across six runs in the seventh inning before falling to top seed Coe-Brown. Carley Holtshouser was 2 for 4 and Jen Carson was 1 for 4 with a triple and two RBIs. Jen Dupuis was 1 for 4 with a grand slam in the seventh inning. Erin Tyrrell was 2 for 4 with a double.

Delaney Parker started for Milford and pitched the first three and a third innings, while Tyrell came in as relief and ended the game.

Coach Jim Rines stressed fundamentals all year, and he believes they cost Milford at the end.

“We started out the year by saying that we needed to catch and throw the ball,” he said, “and at the end, we did not catch and throw the ball.”

WILTON-
LYNDEBOROUGH

BASEBALL

June 5: No. 10 Profile 6, No. 7 WLC 4

The Warriors appeared ready for a playoff run following their convincing 14-1 victory over Epping to end the regular season. Profile School had a different idea, as they upset Wilton-Lyndeborough in the first round of the Division IV playoffs. The game was originally moved from Wilton to Lin-Wood High School in Lincoln, more than 100 miles away. The Warriors lucked out on that end, as the game was ultimately played in Wilton due to inclement weather up North.
