East Allegheny’s lone run was scored by pitcher Stephanie Fritzious who singled and then scored on a single by Shiane Betz.  Fritzious, Betz, and leftfielder Ciara Clifton each had two hits apiece for the game.  Errors proved to be EA’s undoing as Fritzious only gave up one earned run in the game. 

Brentwood will take on Steel Valley Thursday in a key section 4 game.
