TOPSHAM — In a battle between middle school baseball unbeatens, the Mt. Ararat eighth-grade squad came from behind for a 7-6 victory over Auburn on Tuesday.
Auburn jumped on top 2-0 in the first inning.
Still trailing ( 6- 3) after four innings, the Eagles rallied. Jacob Steinman had two big hits, and Cole Guerin, Cameron Cox and Haven Cutko provided timely hits.
Defensively, Kyle Brady made a nice throw to Cox at the plate to retire an Auburn base runner, and Cox threw out a runner at second base on a stolen base, with Kevin Giroux making the tag.
