Extra-innings baseball: All that Anthony Lapine was trying to do was to lay down a sacrifice bunt to move the runner along into scoring position in the eighth inning. Instead, the bunt forced an errant throw up the right-field line and Shane Hazelmyer raced all the way home to give
Liverpool a 5-4, walk-off win over previously unbeaten Baldwinsville.
Liverpool salvaged a win in the three-game set despite having to go up against Bees ace Jason Savacool, a junior coming off a perfect game against Auburn.
College choice: Section 5 career scoring leader Miles Brown signed a letter of intent to continue his basketball career at Ohio University, where his brother Michael Jr. will enroll as a preferred walk-on on an academic scholarship.
"It was an easy decision, I definitely wasn't going without him," Miles Brown said. "Wherever I was going, Michael was definitely going to be right by my side."
Brown was first-team all--state in Class C as a junior and made the Class A first team this season. He is third on the state's career scoring list with 2,914 points, trailing just Joe Girard III and NBA player Lance Stephenson.
Trying something different: The Shenendehowa Central School District is using an organic and pesticide-free treatment to care for its athletic fields, which among other things should cut down on the amount of down time the fields see.
Treatments, which are scheduled for between four and six times a year, began two weeks ago. The plan is to apply pesticides only in emergency situations.
