DELHI – Greene’s Payton Yahner, an eighth-grader, made her first varsity start Thursday afternoon. Yahner took a perfect game bid into the fifth inning but Delhi’s Nealis broke up it up a single.

Yahner completed the five-inning game with seven strikeouts and no walks, surrendering just two hits as the Trojans won 17-1 in Delhi.

The youngster who started in the circle for Greene received support from the Trojans’ bats as Mckenzie Scott and McKenna Sergi each home run shots during the game with Scott coming away with two.

Scott ended the game with three RBIs while Sergi finished the game with three hits and two RBIs.

Greene, who is undefeated at 3-0 on the season, takes on Chenango Forks Saturday at 11 a.m.
