We feel sorry for the softball team that has to face the Greencastle-Antrim Blue Devils when the District 3-5A postseason kicks off in just over a week.
Coach Mark DeCarli’s girls are 19-2 this season, and the Blue Devils are all over our leaderboards. Greencastle’s Caroline Logsdon leads locals in triples (4) and runs (35), while her teammate Meadow Gambacurta leads the area in home runs (4) and RBI (34).
While Greencastle’s postseason journey is just beginning, we have to say goodbye to Derek Kline and the South Hagerstown baseball squad. The Rebels were knocked out of the opening round of the MPSSAA 3A West Region I Quarterfinals, which means Kline ends his junior campaign as the area’s clubhouse leader in batting average (.458), doubles (8), and runs (23).
Track and field, in the midst of the postseason, saw some big movers last week, including Greencastle’s Jaylynn Schmuck, who broke her school’s record in the triple jump. Her teammate, Noah Parks, surged to the area lead in the 800 when he won the event in 1:56.48 at last weekend’s Mid-Penn Championships.
