Greene 6, Oxford 5

GREENE – Greene rallied from an early three-run deficit, and plated the winning run in the bottom of the seventh – the fourth straight time a Trojans contest went down to the final at-bat.

Oxford forged a 5-5 tie in the top of the seventh when Ryan Moore singled home Kyle Ferrington.

Greene scored the winner with one out when Gage Crumb scored Braeden Williams with a single. “Last year, I’m not sure we would have won this game,” said Greene coach Dave Gorton. “We’ve been in games like these four times now, and the kids are confident they can win close games.”
