MORRAL — Last year, Upper Sandusky came up 2.5 points shy of the Northern 10 Athletic Conference girls track and field championship. The Rams made sure that did not happen again, running away with their first league title since 2001 on Friday night at Ridgedale.

ONTARIO — With a lineup as deep as Ontario’s, there was no margin for error by Upper Sandusky’s defense or its pitcher, Alivia Oney. Mistakes mounted early, however, the Rams made six errors, and Oney was frustrated by a tight strike zone in an 11-1 loss to the Warriors in a Division II sectional final Friday at Ontario.

CAREY — It didn’t take the Carey baseball team long to prove that a first round exit wouldn’t happen this year.

It took six years, but it finally happened. Arik Schneider threw a complete-game shutout, Brett Bianchi hit a two-run triple and Brenyn Marquart hit his second home run in as many games as the Upper Sandusky baseball team overwhelmed Spencerville 8-0 on Wednesday at Upper Sandusky High School.

With the type of game Jenna Rodriguez had on Wednesday, it was only fitting the Upper Sandusky center fielder would catch the final out of Upper Sandusky’s 13-11 upset softball victory over rival Carey in Northern 10 Conference play.
