ROCKPORT — Lewiston scored four runs in the top of the seventh inning to overtake Camden Hills 6-5 in KVAC softball action Saturday.
“(It) was a really fun, competitive and hard-fought game by both teams,” Lewiston coach Ryan Cormier said. “Couldn’t be more proud of my team after a come-from-behind (8-4) victory yesterday against Mt. Ararat, and then again today versus Camden Hills”
