Zorn paces Saints

Senior Liz Zorn scored two runs and drove in another to lead Churchville-Chili to a 4-2 win over Gates-Chili in girl's softball.

Zorn plated Jaime Ryan, who had doubled, and later scored on Katy Quartaro's RBI to give the Saints a 2-0 in the first inning.

They made it 3-0 in the third inning when Zorn singled, took second on an error, third on a passed ball and scored on Stephanie Lander's RBI single.

In the fifth, the Saints manufactured an insurance run as Ryan stroked a one-out single to center, stole second, went to third on a wild pitch and scored on yet another wild pitch for a 4-0 lead.

The Spartans broke up the shutout bid with a single run in the sixth inning. Then they scored another in the top of the seventh and got the tying runs on base before getting the final out on a grounder to third.

Ryan went all the way on the mound allowing five hits with two strikeouts.
