SYCAMORE — In sports and especially in softball or baseball, players and teams have to have a short memory because one result is far from a guarantee for the next.

SYCAMORE — Upper Sandusky senior Jevon Dible didn’t just give the Rams an extra innings victory, he made himself the winning pitcher. With the game tied entering the top of the ninth inning, Parker Frombaugh laced a 3-2 pitch to third base that was bobbled by the Mohawk third baseman. He advanced to second when the ball got away from the Mohawk catcher on Ben Sheaffer’s strikeout.
