AMSTERDAM Shelby LaMont had hit home runs before, and Sydney Szczepanik had pitched out of jams before, but never with so much on the line.
LaMont drilled a three-run homer in the third inning, and Szczepanik quelled a bases-loaded, seventh-inning threat with a game-clinching strikeout as Amsterdam beat Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake 4-2 in a Section II Class A softball semifinal Thursday at Shuttleworth Park.
Their clutch efforts helped give Amsterdam a crack at its program’s first area championship. The Rams last played for a Section II championship in 1982.

CHICAGO (AP) Alejandra Cano thought she was in the clear.
It had been five years since she got sober after a decades long struggle with drug addiction. She racked up several misdemeanors when she was using, mostly for shoplifting. But that was another life. In this one, Cano, 46, was a working single mom who lived in a comfortable first-floor apartment on the West Side of Chicago with her two teenage sons. And after almost 20 years of not seeing her dad or her homeland, Cano decided to fly to Chile in August 2019.
