If the eye-popping stats serve as any kind of an indicator, the softball teams from Greencastle-Antrim and Chambersburg should be feared when the District 3 postseason kicks off this week.
Blue Devils and Trojans are all over our stat leaderboards, including Meadow Gambacurta and Bree Paetow. Gambacurta, from Greencastle, leads the Local.News1 coverage area with 34 RBI, and also ranks among area leaders in batting average (.464), doubles (7), and home runs (4). Chambersburg’s Paetow sports a .577 average and leads locals in doubles (8), triples (5), runs (36), and stolen bases (24).
Baseball season is over for all area teams except for Smithsburg, which means that the Leopards’ Gavin Ramarge has at least one more postseason game to expand on his area lead in home runs (5) and runs (22).
Finally, the cream is rising to the top on our track and field leaderboards this postseason. Blake Mallast, of Chambersburg, established himself as the area’s fastest sprinter in the 100 (10.55) and 200 (21.28), while Smithsburg’s Jenna Howe and North Hagerstown’s Rian Johnson combine to hold the area’s best times in seven different events.
Our spring sports leaderboard is based on stats for the seven teams in the Local.News1 coverage area — Waynesboro, Greencastle-Antrim, Chambersburg, Fairfield, North Hagerstown, South Hagerstown, and Smithsburg — that have been reported to maxpreps.com, athletic.net, and GameChanger.
