Section 9 Class AA softball champion Minisink Valley ran into an offensive buzzsaw as Nassau County champion rolled to a 14-2, six-inning victory in the state semifinals at Grand Slam Park in Binghamton on Friday, June 12.
Every batter in the Colts lineup picked up at least one base hit, with 14 in all.
Minisink finished the season at 19-5. The Warriors were held to just four base hits, the biggest a two-run home run by leadoff hitter Keira Filip in the third inning, pulling Minisink within 3-2.
Calhoun responded with three more runs in the fourth and seven in the fifth. A single tally in the sixth allowed Calhoun to post the mercy rule victory.
An early afternoon thunderstorm led to a delayed start by 2 hours, 20 minutes.
