Not easily done, but Timberlane's girls' tennis team swept Winnacunnet, 9-0. Rachel Bushey took an 8-6 barnburner in fourth singles while the tandem of Stephanie Andrade and Chelsey Sproul prevailed, 8-6, in second doubles for the Owls (6-2).

A six-run sixth inning obliterated Pinkerton's three-run advantage and gave host Winnacunnet a surprising 7-4 victory. Steve Curry led the offense for the Astros (2-7), rapping out two hits including a double and driving in a pair of runs. This wasn't Winnacunnet's biggest comeback victory this year as it overcame a seven-run deficit against Alvirne to win a week ago.

Matt Caiazzo  singled, stole second and scored on the double from Matt Sheehan that sparked Timberlane's 8-5 win over Winnacunnet in eight innings. Dan Armstrong drove in the other two runs in the extra frame.

Sophomore Joe Gallant had a breakout performance in Salem's 75-46 win over Winnacunnet. The 6-4 sophomore forward scored 12 points and added 12 rebounds to lead the Blue Devils. Salem also received outstanding efforts from Josh Jones (20 points), Mike Kimball (13 points) and Alex La Rosa (17 points, 5 3-pointers).

HAMPTON, N.H. — Timberlane junior Derek Furey was not about to be outplayed last night.

As he watched on the sideline while Winnacunnet star receiver Harry Knowles scored his fourth touchdown of the night, returning a kickoff 84 yards to tie the score 27-27 with 4:51 left to play, he knew what he had to do.

Londonderry field hockey defeated Winnacunnet 1-0 and Timberlane defeated Dover 3-2 in overtime to set up an all-local Class L semifinal. The Lancers will face the Owls at 5 p.m. Tuesday at Bedford High School.

On an uncommon off-night that turned into Londonderry's first girls volleyball loss of the season, Brittany Buyck continued her solid play. While the Lancers were hitting "at 'em" balls, according to head coach Peter Willis, and suffering many unforced errors against Winnacunnet, Buyck was a pillar of consistency. As the setter, she mastered up her sixth straight 20-assist effort.

Salem's Casey Peters finished the night with 18 service points, and nine aces as the Blue Devils downed Winnacunnet 25-22, 25-22, 25-23.

"Casey was unbelievable for us tonight," said Salem head coach Dan Young. "The service points just kept coming, ace after ace. Really an unbelievable game for her." 

Timberlane lost 3-0 to Winnacunnet. Owl keeper Jess Barrett had a solid game in net.
