CENTRAL BUCKS SOUTH 12, WISSAHICKON 0 (5 innings)
The Titans continued their offensive assault of their opponents, blowing Friday’s non-league game wide open with a five-run second to go on top 6-0. At the end of four innings, they led 12-0, and a win was all but in the books.
Since falling to Christopher Dock 2-1 in their season opener, the Titans have outscored their opponent 78-6 in six straight wins.
Morgan Decker and Hallie Bilker led the Titans with two hits each. Haileigh Stocks was all but untouchable on the mound for the Titans, allowing one baserunner while fanning 12 in five overpowering innings.
Katie Ziegler, who absorbed her first loss, accounted for the Trojans only hit with a triple.
While the Titans upped their record to 6-1, the Trojans fell to 3-1.
BENSALEM 3, VILLA JOSEPH MARIE 0
It took some time for the Owls to adjust to a slower pitcher – seven innings to be exact, but when it mattered most, their big bats delivered. Isabel Hansbury delivered a clutch two-out, two-run double in the seventh inning to put the Owls on the scoreboard. Jackie Morell followed with an RBI double for the 3-0 final.
“We played very good defense, and we chipped away,” coach Dan Schram said. “It was an exciting game.”
Freshman Jess Rozik earned the win on the mound, scattering three hits while fanning five and walking one.
The Owls are 5-2 on the young season.
