Good Morning! With the Border Country Sports Report, I’m Keith Harrington.

I’m back! After a trip to Washington DC for work and Orlando for a family vacation the last couple of weeks I am back in circulation. The perfect time to travel for me is when high school sports ends for the year and before summer sports kicks into high gear. It is hard to believe that another year of high school sports coverage has flown by already.

During the summer months I usually only blog 3 or 4 times a week until the Saratoga horse racing meet begins. Then I will be here once again with my daily race picks to try to help you cash in at the track.

State Softball All-Stars Named

The NYSSCOGS All-State Softball Teams were announced recently and a small contingent of local players were recognized.

Bella Garrison of Salem was selected to the second team. Garrison played shortstop for the Generals.

Fort Ann pitcher Emma Blondin was also named to the Class D second team.

Hartford Rallies Past Slate Valley in TCML Softball

Hartford erased a six-run deficit in the fifth to rally past Slate Valley 10-9 Monday in TCML softball.

Slate Valley led 7-1 in the fifth, but Hartford was able to erase the deficit with help from Slate Valley’s defensive miscues.

Cailin Severance and Layla Cameron had RBI singles and McKenzie Dickinson drove in a pair of runs for Hartford. Silver Stewart reached on an error. Madalyn Mead-Collina singled in the frame.

Reagan Gebo earned the win in the circle for Hartford, setting Slate Valley in order in the sixth and seventh innings.

Olivia Cole-Bugay was 3 for 4 with a double and three RBIs for Slate Valley. Cole-Bugay also struck out nine.

Sydney Ellis added a pair of hits.
