Lawrence' softball team, down 9-2, rallied for its first win of the season, 17-15 over Greater Lawrence. The Lancers took advantage of a sixth-inning injury to Reggie pitcher Maggie Santomassino, who had to leave the game, by scoring 12 runs in that inning.

Shannon Tully went 4 for 4 with two doubles and drove in four runs as Andover's softball team blanked Lawrence 8-0. Usually the catcher, Tully played first base and third base and made a nifty play at third.

It wasn't pretty, but Greater Lawrence defeated Lawrence in softball for the first time in at least 15 years, 17-7. The Reggies only had four hits but took advantage of 15 walks and three hit batters.

Freshmen Meghan Murphy (3 runs), Angelina Correia (2 hits) and winning pitcher Kayleigh Forgetta (7 strikeouts) powered Methuen to a 16-4, five-inning win over Lawrence.

Sophomore Susan Murphy had three hits and five RBIs and classmate Theresa Ross added three hits and four RBIs as Haverhill slapped Lawrence 21-6.

"That's the hardest we've hit the ball in two years," said Haverhill coach Andy Reusch.
