It was a birthday to remember for Skyler Steele.

The Frontier slugger smacked a home run and drove in five runs as the Redhawks cruised to a 15-3 victory over Wahconah in a Franklin County League West contest on Monday at Zabek Field in South Deerfield.

Steele also had a single in the win for Frontier, which received a walk-off single from Olivia Machon in the sixth inning to secure the run-ruled victory. 

Raine Wonsey gave up just four hits and four walks over six innings to earn the win. Ashley Taylor, Delaney Fifield, Machon, Sophia Pinardi, Hailey Hutkoski and Adelaide Ehle had multiple hits as part of an 18-hit Hawks attack. 

Frontier stays home to host Pioneer on Wednesday. 

Franklin Tech 22, Mahar 3 (5) – Kylee Gamache roped a three-run home run over the left field fence in the top of the second inning as the visiting Eagles pushed 13 runs across in the frame en route to the Franklin County League East win in Orange.

Gianna DiSciullo (three RBIs) and Kaitlin Trudeau (2B, 3B, RBI) were both 3-for-3 to aid the Franklin Tech offensive effort. Lilly Ross had two hits and two RBIs for the Eagles, and Kyra Goodell also knocked two hits.

Brayleigh Burgh struck out 10 and allowed two hits in a five-inning complete game for Tech.
