Winning pitcher Craig Sheridan (3-2) allowed one earned run, five hits and three walks while striking out three over six innings Wednesday as No. 4 South River beat host host No. 7 Old Mill, 5-1. Brody Raimondo had two singles and scored twice for the visiting Seahawks (11-4). Scott Mitchell had an RBI single, and Jake Gratz executed a squeeze bunt to pace the offense.  On defense, left fielder Connor Cox threw out Nestor Rentas at the plate in the bottom of the fifth, and Gratz caught Brent Orbell drifting off third in the bottom of the sixth as the Patriots (7-3)

The battle for the Anne Arundel County baseball championship will likely come down to the final week of the regular season. On Wednesday, 10th-ranked North County made sure that it stayed in the thick of the race with a 5-1 victory over No. 6 Broadneck. The host Knights, who ran their winning streak to three games, got a complete-game performance from senior pitcher Gregg Hauck and timely hitting to beat the visiting Bruins. In just his second start of the season, Hauck scattered four hits and struck out seven.

Chachi Kelehan's open-net goal with 38 seconds left to play gave the Mount Hebron girls lacrosse team the cushion it needed to hold off Glenelg, 8-6, in a game played at Cedar Lane Park. Kelehan got the shot when Glenelg goalkeeper Megan Taylor (15 saves) came out of the goal circle to double-team on defense. Jen Giles put No. 6 Mount Hebron on the scoreboard six seconds after the game began. "That startled us for a second," Taylor said. Giles quickly added a second score, but the Vikings were never able to get more than a two-goal advantage.

Each time Howard's Cody Ford steps onto the field, he is expected to score. The man-up specialist for the Lions took full advantage of his limited minutes on Wednesday. The junior attackman scored four times, including the game-winning goal in overtime, propelling Howard to an 8-7 victory over host Marriotts Ridge in a pivotal Howard County lacrosse matchup. The Lions improved to 7-1 overall and 4-1 in the league, while the Mustangs dropped to 5-3 and 3-3. Senior Sam Hebner scored four goals for Marriotts Ridge, which was coming off a heartbreaking 7-6 loss in triple overtime to Reservoir last Friday.

Catonsville senior Deb Milani (four goals, one assist) and sophomore Jenn Nonn (one goal, three assists) had four points each and senior Claudia Flister added three goals to lead the unbeaten Comets (6-0) to a 13-12 lacrosse victory Wednesday over visiting Hereford (3-3). Hereford played the last 18:55 with leading scorer Noelle Funk (two goals, two assists) out after receiving a fourth yellow card, but the Bulls hung in until the final two minutes, thanks to goalie MC Abbott, who had seven of her 11 saves in the second half.
