Dighton-Rehoboth wins Division 3 softball title in dramatic fashion

AMHERST — It became increasingly clear as the Division 3 softball finals progressed Saturday that whoever had the last swing could be champion.

Luckily for Katie Holmes, it was her Dighton-Rehoboth team that was the home team against Hudson. Fittingly, it was senior Lucy LaTour who capped off her career in perfect fashion as her Haleigh Kelley double gave the Falcons a 4-3 victory.

“It’s so fitting that it goes to someone like Lucy,” said an emotional Holmes. “I had no doubt she was going to make it.”

LaTour's hit was the final salvo on a day in which the teams combined for 24 hits and a bushel full of spectacular defensive plays. None were bigger than Cam Cloonan's in the top of the seventh who homered Audrey Lenox while trying to give Hudson the lead.

Kelley got on board via a lead error late in the inning. LaTour didn't waste much time in ending proceedings as she nailed a double into the right center space, easily scoring a sliding Kelley to spark the Falcons' celebration.

“We were lucky to get the last at bat,” Holmes said. “We knew it was going to be a game where we had to match them shot for shot, run for run because they are so brave and don't give up.”

The Falcons (23-3) took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the third when Cloonan's hot bat stayed scorching. The second baseman hit her fifth two-run homer in the last four games to break the ice.

Hudson (18-7) wasted no time returning the favor as Lenox led off the third with an opposite-field homer to right. Singles by Sam Collette and Liv Connolly preceded a double by Taylor Attaway that tied the game.

The Hawks finally loaded the bases and Livy Souza delivered a two-out single that gave Sydney Walsh a 3-2 lead.

It stayed that way until the fifth when Caleigh Cloonan led off for DR with a single. After stealing second, she came home on LaTour's second hit of the game.

“It’s so great for our seniors to get out this way,” Holmes said. “They are a wonderful group of leaders and young women.”
