Staples Softballers Honor Seniors, Advance to State Tourney

The annual Staples High School Seniors Night pre-game ceremony for the softball team’s graduating seniors was held at the Greens Farms field today prior to the season’s final home game against Woodbury’s Nonnewaug High School. Receiving flowers were seniors (l-r) Emma Moskowitz, Crissy McCarthy, Lindsay Kiedaisch, Maya Mandell, Katherine Friend, and Katie Burke. Staples won 6-5, qualifying the Wreckers for the state championship tournament in June. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com

This was one of the most exciting games to have watched. Staples, down 5-2, clawed back through the last 3 innings and then winning it in the bottom of the 7th with a dramatic walk off suicide squeeze.
It was also little league night. The large crowd rushed the field to join the girls in their celebration as the opposing players, who also played a great game, walked off.
What a great win for the seniors!!!
