đ„Game of the Day
The North Kingstown softball team saved its season with one swing.
Visit newsbetting.cv for more information.
Mia DâAndrea supplied the heroics, a walk-off two-run home run to left field, as the fourth-seeded Skippers toppled No. 9 Prout, 4-2, on their home turf. Alexis St. Germain started the rally with a one-out single to center. North Kingstown was down to its last out prior to extra innings before DâAndrea, on the second pitch of the at-bat, sent the Skippers to the Division I losersâ bracket final.
North Kingstown now meets No. 2 Chariho on Wednesday at 5 p.m. at Rhode Island College.
The Skippers first three batters -- Amelia Fries, DâAndrea and Ella Mezzanotte -- provided plenty of power at the front of the lineup. The trio finished with six of NKâs eight hits, including a go-ahead home run from Fries in the fifth inning.
St. Germain secured NKâs two other hits and tossed an absolute gem in the circle. The freshman pitched beyond her years in the win-or-go home affair allowing just one hit with a dozen strikeouts to one walk. Both of Proutâs runs were unearned, as errors in the fourth and sixth frames led to scoring chances.
St. Germain sat the Crusaders down in order in the seventh with two strikeouts and a groundout to short. The Skippers are now hoping to roll their momentum into a championship appearance, as only the Chargers stand between them and a date with La Salle.
đ„SOFTBALL â D-II losersâ semifinal
Ponaganset 15, Portsmouth 5
Ella McKenney wasnât ready for the Chieftainsâ season to end.
The sophomore had herself a day to lead No. 7 Ponaganset to a 15-5 upset over the third-ranked Patriots. McKenneyâs three-run home run in the fourth inning was only one part of her six-RBI performance.
She put Ponaganset ahead, 3-0, in the first inning on an RBI single. Natalia Scorpio also hit a two-RBI double in the frame as the Chieftains started their road playoff game with a bang. McKenney also knocked in two runs in the fifth on another single. Mia Duncan supplied three hits and a trio of RBIs in the lopsided win.
Mattea Mello picked up the win with a complete-game performance that included 11 strikeouts and four earned runs allowed on eight hits.
Ponaganset now meets No. 2 Johnston in the losersâ bracket final at 7 p.m. on Tuesday at Rhode Island College.
đ„SOFTBALL â D-III losersâ semifinal
Exeter-West Greenwich 8, Middletown 6
đBOYS VOLLEYBALL â D-III semifinal
Mt. Hope 3, Hope 0
The top-ranked Huskies are back in the Division III championship game.
Mt. Hope has been on a torrid path through league play this season after winning its first boys volleyball crown last spring. The Huskies lost just three games all season -- two against league opponents -- and that didnât change on Monday night at home.
The solid play of Jackson Gould (eight blocks, seven kills), Bradley Harrington (10 kills, eight digs) and Dylan Oliveira (23 assists, four aces) paved the way for the Huskies sweep (25-16, 25-19, 26-24) of the fifth-seeded Blue Wave in the semifinals.
Mt. Hope plays the winner of St. Raphael and Exeter-West Greenwich in the championship on Saturday.
Cristian Alvarado recorded 11 kills, two blocks and three digs for Hope in the loss. Karl Desir had nine kills and seven digs and Evan Souvanvong finished with 34 assists, four digs and two aces.

âŸBASEBALL â D-III Pod 2 Final
BVPCF 9, EWG 7
Blackstone Valley Prepâs first-inning surge was only outdone by the postgame celebration.
No. 7 BVPCF struck for six runs in the opening frame and then stranded the tying run at the plate in the bottom of the seventh. The party was on as Alex Torres forced two popouts to first base to finish off No. 2 Exeter-West Greenwich, 9-7, at Wawaloam Field.
The triumph books the co-op, in its third season as a program, a spot in the Division III championship. It was the second time in these playoffs that BVPCF defeated EWG with a 9-7 finish after upsetting the Knights in the opening round of the tournament.
Torres picked up the save and was nearly perfect at the plate, as he went 4-for-5 with an RBI and two runs scored. The senior started off the game with a double and was followed by Noah Ferreiraâs home run to left-center field.
The visitors, after the first out of the inning, then walked three consecutive times and scored on a hit-by-pitch. Carlos Luna made it 4-0 on a single to center and then BVPCF scored again on another HBP with the bases loaded. They werenât done there as Torres came back around to hit and scored Jolihan Perez on a sacrifice fly.
BVPCF secured an insurance run in the seventh inning when Torres attempted to steal home. He was originally called out at the plate, but after the umpires met, EWG was called for a balk in the sequence. Ferreira earned the win on the mound with 5 1/3 innings pitched. The senior surrendered two earned runs on six hits with six strikeouts and four walks.
EWG didnât go away after the first inning, as it cut the deficit to 6-3 on a single by Logan Sweet. The Knights also got to within two runs in the fifth frame. This playoff game couldâve gone in either direction -- thatâs usually how D-III games are played. Both teams have a chance to win on any given day and just a couple plays can decide an outcome.
BVPCF now plays the defending champions, undefeated Woonsocket, in the title series. The Villa Novans returned most of their team from last year and didnât move up to D-II.
