Seneca Valley's Morgan Aloi was all smiles back to her bench after hitting a triple against Knoch during the Raiders' come-from-behind 5-4 softball victory Tuesday.

JACKSON TWP — Knoch's defense had been flawless through six innings of Tuesday's non-section softball game against Seneca Valley.

The seventh frame, however, was a different story.

Two miscues by the Knights helped the Raiders score the tying run before Olivia Madey's base hit with one out plated Madison Hans with the deciding run in a 5-4 victory at Raider Field.

Trouble began early in the inning for the Knights as Morgan Aloi led off with a single — her third hit of the game — and ended up at third base after the ball was misplayed in the outfield.

“We didn't play as well defensively in the seventh as we had hoped,” said Knoch coach Tim Knappenberger. “It's a close game in the bottom of the seventh and the leadoff hitter gets on, ends up at third with no outs. That makes it really tough.”

Last year, the host Knights scored a pair of runs in the bottom of the sixth to defeat the Raiders, 7-6.
