Oxford Hills scored seven runs in the first three innings and looked to put Brunswick away early in Kennebec Valley Athletic Conference play, but the Dragons battled back before falling short in the final game of the regular season.

Hannah Kenney sparked the Vikings’ offense with three hits including a triple and a fourth inning home run, collecting five RBIs and scoring three runs.

The Dragons (1-15), down 9-0 entering the home half of the fourth inning, got on the scoreboard when Emily Girardin walked and stole second. She later scored on a Gianna Gaudet single.

In the fifth inning, senior captain Ashley Howe doubled to deep center field and scored on a Shelby Plourde sacrifice after advancing to third on a wild pitch.

Brunswick continued to chip away at the scoring, adding three runs over the final two innings before Vikings’ pitcher Erika Whitman forced a ground out to end the game.

Alicia Armstrong and Hannah Escoe had two singles each for the Dragons. Plourde added a double to her day.

“We made a couple of errors and had two big calls go against us,” Dragons head coach Hugh Dwyer said. “But, the girls had a determined mindset today and that was sustained throughout the contest.”
