The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans defeated the Waupaca Comets 5-1 and claimed the outright North Eastern Conference championship in the process Thursday afternoon.
The Spartans took care of business early with four first-inning runs and cruised to the victory, while benefiting from Denmark’s upset of the Freedom Irish 5-0 clinch the conference title.
The Spartans scored two runs before the first out in the bottom of the first inning and got a clutch two-out, two-run RBI single from Kate Vaness to take a 4-0 lead.
Savannah Jandrin was efficient and effective on the mound by going the distance and only allowing one run on five hits.
