WALES — After allowing 10 unearned runs in Monday’s bizarre, 10-9 loss at Winthrop, Oak Hill needed a clean game to get back on track. A little extra fielding practice and another efficient outing from Parker Asselin got the Raiders refocused Friday against Wiscasset. Asselin tossed a three-hit shutout with the help of his solid, […]

H.S. Baseball: Ramblers repel Raiders in wild one
WALES — Jared Hanson didn’t have much zip remaining in his right arm, and Winthrop’s reserves of energy and self-confidence weren’t exactly filled to the rim.

Charlie Castonguay was first able to witness the progress of the Oak Hill girls’ basketball program from the opposing bench.

Boys’ Lacrosse: Oak Hill shuts out Mt. Blue
WALES — Oak Hill lacrosse coach Dan Brannigan’s Wednesday afternoon dress code — black-and-gold hat, with a slightly dated, T-shirt-style Tim Thomas jersey — paid homage to his Stanley Cup playoff alliance.

H.S. softball: New roles for Collins
WALES — For a senior veteran, Kelsey Collins is adjusting to a couple new roles this season.

H.S. softball: Raiders rally for fourth straight win
But instead of driving in runs, her line drive went right back to the pitcher to end the inning. “I was sort of down, but I knew we needed to get up,” the sophomore first baseman said. “We were down a little, but if we got ourselves up, we could win.” Two innings later, Sabine […]

H.S. boys’ lacrosse: Oak Hill shoots past Mountain Valley
WALES — Dan Brannigan has told his team it needs to shoot more. By now, his Oak Hill boys’ lacrosse squad is likely tired of hearing the cliche that 100 percent of the shots they don’t take won’t go in. Brannigan tends to preach that often in practice. So the Raiders did a little something […]

H.S. Baseball: Defense saves Dirigo in 4-2 win over Oak Hill
DIXFIELD — What we know after a blustery Monday afternoon at Harlow Park is that Oak Hill baseball is back, and that Dirigo hasn’t gone anywhere. A weird Mountain Valley Conference contest marked by base-running blunders in both directions ended with the two-time defending Class C champion Cougars on top, 4-2, and with both clubs […]
