Baillargeon smashes 2 HRS

HUNTINGTON – There are some high school football contests which do not even reach the total number of points, or in this case, runs scored in Monday’s softball game.
Holyoke Catholic won a high-scoring, 3-hour marathon against Gateway, 38-23, Monday at the Gators’ home diamond. Gators’ senior Arielle Baillargeon (3-for-4) clubbed two home runs (2nd, 6th innings), collected eight RBIs, and scored four runs.
Gateway kept from being mercy-ruled twice, scoring eight runs in the fifth inning, and three in the sixth.
“This challenged our resiliency,” Gators’ coach Matt Bonenfant said. “Our girls have a no-quit attitude. Offensively, we stepped up today.”
Gateway drew 19 walks.
The Gators return to action Tuesday against Renaissance at Marshall Roy Field in Springfield. First pitch is scheduled for 4 p.m.
