SO WE MEET AGAIN

They dominated the WPIAL softball 6A landscape in the spring of 2022 and 2023 and they are doing it again here in 2024.

Nobody has come close to the softball success enjoyed by Seneca Valleyand Hempfield.

Seneca Valley is 12-0 in 6A and a perfect 15-0 on the season.

Hempfield is 11-1 in 6A and 13-1 overall with the lone loss coming at the hands of Seneca Valley on April 10.

In that game, Raiders junior Lexie Hames dominated the diamond, throwing a no-hitter and striking out 18 Spartans batters in the 2-0 win.

The teams meet against Wednesday at Hempfield.

A Raiders win means Seneca Valley will take a huge step toward an outright regular season championship in the district’s highest classification.

If the Spartans can even the score, then the teams will split the regular season as they did a year ago, and barring any upsets, will share the regular season crown.
