OXFORD HILLS 6, LEWISTON 0: Cameron Mayhan gave up a hit to the Blue Devils’ first batter of the game then didn’t allow another in the Vikings’ (10-1) Class A North win in Lewiston.

Mayhan finished with seven strikeouts and seven walks.

The first four innings were a pitchers’ duel between Mayhan and Lewiston’s Ava Dionne (three strikeouts, one walk in seven innings). Then the Vikings pulled away with two runs in the fifth inning and three in the sixth.

“Oxford was able to capitalize on the only two times that they were able to string some hits together late in the game,” Blue Devils coach Ryan Cormier said.

Maddy Miller had three hits, drove in three runs and scored two for Oxford Hills, and Samantha McPhail singled and also drove home two runs. Mynahan helped her own cause with an RBI, while Gigi DeVivo, Kyeria Morse and Charlotte McGreevy each belted two singles.

Isabella Enos had the lone hit for the Blue Devils (5-5).

“Even though it was a 6-0 loss for us, today’s game helped build confidence for players who stepped up for starters who were absent,” Cormier said. “These players filled in key spots on the field and played great. Very happy with the way we played today.

“Oxford played great too, made some big catches in the outfield to keep us with only one hit today against Cameron.”
