| Ducinski no-hits Abington in sweep |

It was a good vacation week for the DHS girls’ softball team, as they took on annual South Shore League powerhouse Abington High School twice and rode the pitching and hitting of senior Casey Ducinski for a pair of wins.
The girls traveled to Abington last Monday and got Ducinski’s best performance of the year, as she struck out nine Green Waves on her way to a no-hitter in an 8-1 win The Lady Dragons got all the runs they would need in the first inning, and it was the senior lefty who provided her own support by opening the game with a single, stealing second, and coming home on a pair of infield outs. Duxbury strung four singles together in the top of the second inning for two more runs, as Jacquie Cronin, Alanna Rourke, Kayla McGillivray and Laura Walter reached safely, with Cronin and Rourke crossing the plate. The offense continued to deliver in the fifth inning, when Rourke singled and scored on a triple by Laura Walter, who scored on a single by Madi Duddy for a 5-0 lead. In the seventh inning Walter singled, while Duddy and Kristen McHugh walked to load the bases. The trio would all cross the plate, as an error and a pair of walks cleared the bases The only tarnish for the day was the fact that Abington ruined Ducinski’s shutout by reaching on an error, stealing second base, moving to third on a fielders choice and scoring on a sacrifice fly The two teams returned to Duxbury on Thursday, and the Lady Dragons jumped on Abington pitching in the first inning, exploding for four runs. A Cronin double, and an error and a stolen base by Rourke, set the table for McGillivray’s single for a quick 2-0 lead. Walter and McHugh walked, coming home on a Duddy double that ended the rally. The Lady Dragons scored three more runs in the bottom of the second, as back-to-back triples by Ducinski and Cronin, along with singles by Rourke and McGillivray made it a commanding 7-0 lead. Duxbury would add its final run of the game in the third inning, when Duddy walked and went to second on a single by Ducinski. Kim Bond followed with an RBI single to close out the Duxbury scoring. After pitching 11 innings of no-hit ball over two games, Ducinski finally gave up a hit to Abington in the fifth inning for a run, and surrendered three more in the seventh for the 8-4 final. Now sporting a 7-2 record (prior to this week’s action), the Lady Dragons will entertain Rockland on Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. |
