DALTON, Mass. – There was not much separating the 16-and-under softball teams from the Rip City and Mass Destruction travel programs on Saturday night. But it was just enough to give Mass Destruction a Dalton CRA Invitational title and major bragging rights. “I feel like there’s been a lot of rivalry between us for a long time,” Amanda Pou said after throwing a two-hitter in a 2-0 win under the lights at Pine Grove Park. “A lot of players in transition.

DALTON, Mass. – Just when the Berkshire Force 14-and-under softball team needed a lift, Isabella Williams delivered. Williams reached on a bunt single in the bottom of the fifth to ignite a five-run rally and send the Force on to a 12-7 win over the Lake Champlain Brewers in the title game of the Dalton CRA Invitational on Saturday. The Force went to the bottom of what was likely to be the game’s last inning due to time constraints – if it scored – coming off top of the fifth when an error helped the Brewers score four times to tie the game, 7-7. Williams, who also walked three times in her four plate appearances, laid down a beauty and raced to

DALTON, Mass. – Brayden Durant Thursday cemented his place as the best Little Leaguer in Berkshire County this summer and earned a spot in the history of Adams-Cheshire baseball. Durant started the Don Gleason District 1 Championship Game with a one-out solo blast to center field and ended it with the 11th strikeout of his complete-game 2-0 win over the Pittsfield Americans. It marked the first time the district crown is going to the Adams or Cheshire communities since the then-Adams Little League won the title in 1991 and the first time a team other than the Pittsfield Little League American Division moved on to represent District 1 in sectional play since
