Baseball

Lawrence 12, Tewksbury 7

Sometimes showing heart isn't quite enough if the hole you've dug is too deep.

Such was the case for on Monday. Redmern starter Zac DiRocco got touched up for seven runs in the first inning as Lawrence struck early and often. By the end of four, Tewksbury was down, 10-2.

But Tewksbury (5-8) didn't fold its tents. Allyn Hood (3 RBI) and Alex Hamilton (2 RBI) had two hits each to lead the Tewksbury comeback, which included a five-run fifth to cut the deficit to 10-7. But two more runs by Lawrence in the sixth put the game away.
