    Neither the Southern Aroostook or East Grand girls fared well during the Class D quarterfinal round of the Eastern Maine Tournament last Thursday.
    In Dyer Brook, the Lady Warriors held the lead until the top of the seventh when Whitney Donovan delivered a single to score the go-ahead run as the No. 5 Hornets stung host No. 4 Southern Aroostook, 17-11.
    Ashland’s Allyx Beaulieu tied the game at 10-all when she banged a run-scoring single and then Ashland tacked on six more runs for insurance after Donovan’s single to erase a 11-10 deficit in the sixth.
