Thanks to some booming bats and a promising start from their ace pitcher, the South Portland Red Riots lived up to their billing Friday afternoon as one of the top softball teams in Class A South.
Sophomore Emilie Way paced a 13-hit attack with four hits, including a triple and a home run, and the Red Riots got a gem from Mia Micucci, who struck out 11, walked none, and allowed just five hits and no earned runs in a season-opening 10-3 win over Portland at Payson Park.
