In another battle of two state-ranked squads, the Lady Macks (20-3, 12-2 Western Cloverbelt Conference) faced a team in the Crickets (27-2, 14-0 WCC) who had handed them their only two losses of the year.
It was a pitchers' duel to start, as no baserunner got beyond first until the bottom of the third inning. That's when Fall Creek broke through with four runs, all with two outs.
The Lady Macks fought back in the top of the fourth, plating three runs of their own.
The veteran Crickets lineup slowly pulled away, however, and McDonell's stellar season came to an end with their first Division 4 tournament ending at the Sectional level.
A salute to this year's incredible senior class: Abby Bresina, Aubrey Dorn, Katie Ruf, and Morgan Wirtz. Thank you for all you've done for the Lady Macks program, for your school, and in our community! You've left an indelible mark, and you will be greatly missed!
