Neshaminy 8, Abington 5

ABINGTON — This was a bit of a scare as the Redskins (3-0) were forced to storm back from a five-run deficit.
The big inning found Neshaminy scoring six runs in the top of the fifth. Kelsey Ryan had a huge hit there when she doubled home the tying run and then later scored the go-ahead run.
In the sixth inning, Christina Udris poked a two-run single. She, Erin Quense, Brittany and Brianna Guidos all had two hits.
Brianna Guidos also got the save in relief of Sarah McGowan (two strikeouts).
“We couldn’t do anything for the first four innings and then once we started hitting, it didn’t stop," said Neshaminy coach Kathleen Mullins. “I was proud of the comeback."
