Caribou junior league team sweeps Madawaska
    Caribou hosted Madawaska for a baseball doubleheader Sunday in the junior league for ages 13 and 14, and the hosts earned a sweep by scores of 10-0 and 13-6.    Caribou, which finished the season with a 7-1 record, got a complete-game one-hitter from Matt Curry in game one. Dean Walker and Curry had two hits each for the winners, while Charlie Nadeau had a hit for Madawaska to spoil the no-hit bid.  
    In the second contest, Caribou scored four times in the fifth inning to break open a close game. Matt Milliard and Alex Losieniecki did the pitching for Caribou, with Milliard, Curry and Breen Blackstone leading the offense with two hits apiece.
