The Sachems are officially in the win column following a 14-11 win at home against Hamilton-Wenham. 

“It was a slugfest and we were fortunate enough to come out on the winning end,” Saugus coach Steve Almquist said. “We didn’t play our best game but well enough to escape with the victory.”

Captain Taylor Deleidi went the distance on the mound to earn herself her first win of the season. At the plate, Deleidi registered two hits and brought home three RBI. 

Captains Devany Millerick, Ava Rogers, and Lily Ventre all had at least two hits and three RBI in the win.  

Saugus will look to keep the momentum going on Tuesday at 3:30 against Winthrop at Parcher Field. 

“We’ve got a ton of work to do if we want to remain competitive but it was nice to get that first win under our belt,” Almquist said.
