HOPEWELL TOWNSHIP– A complete team effort leads the Hopewell HS Softball team to a 10-0 win over Beaver Falls.

Offensively, the Hopewell hitters picked up a season-high 11 hit, including a triple a piece from Ramaley and freshman Lillian Otto.
Marina Pinchotti, Ramaley, Otto and Gianna Rossi picked up 2 hits apiece, while Abigail Babinsack, Dakota Roche and Teagan Scully also picked up hits.
RBI collectors for the Vikings were Ramaley with 2 and Babinsack, Otto, Rossi, Kamryn Roche and Scully each collected an RBI.
For the third straight game, the Hopewell defenders played a solid game in the field, committing just 1 error. In their last 3 games, Hopewell has not committed more than 1 error in each game.

Otto: 2
Dakota Roche: 3
