LISBON FALLS — First baseman Melissa Mayhew threw a strike to the plate, and catcher Rachel Anderson made the tag on Lisbon’s Olivia Harrington as Sacopee Valley held on for a 7-6 Western Maine Class C high school semifinal softball victory over the Greyhounds on Saturday.

Down by a run, Harrington reached on a dropped third strike and moved to second on a groundball. A hard-hit grounder by Arianna Kahler was bobbled for an error, with the throw to first too late.

Lisbon (10-6) coach Terri Trudell waved Harrington home on the play, but Mayhew’s throw was in time to end the game and send the seventh-seeded Hawks (8-10) to the Western C final on Tuesday against No. 4 Dirigo (a 9-3 winner over No. 1 Madison on Saturday).

“It was a great play by them, and just felt we needed to go for it there and we just came up short,” said Trudell.

No. 3 Lisbon held leads of 4- 2 and 6-4, the latter after a two-run single by Alexa Harmon in the fifth inning. But, Sacopee rallied each time, taking the lead in the sixth with three runs on two hits and two Lisbon errors.

McKenzie Ross led the Hawks with three hits, including a double, while Shelley Pellegrino singled twice and drove in two runs, including the game-winner. Ashley Pingree also had two hits, while Mayhew and Julia Vacchiano drove in a pair of runs each.

Harrington, Chantal Bisson, Harmon and Haley Eck each picked up two hits to lead the Greyhounds’ offense, with Kahler and Eck driving in one run each and Harrington scoring twice.
