After back-to-back losses to perennial powerhouses Greenfield and Turners Falls to open the season, the Athol High School softball team broke out in a big way on Tuesday.
The Red Raiders scored nine runs in the bottom of the first inning to set the tone, and ultimately scored an 11-1 win over Pioneer in a Franklin County League contest in Athol.
“The girls were hungry and ready to hit today,” Athol coach Sharon Chauvette said.
Pioneer jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning when Hailey Haughey drilled a solo home run just two batters into the contest.
