Unami Middle School’s seventh and eighth grade softball team won the Central Bucks School District’s softball championship.
Maddie Motley recorded 14 strikeouts, earning her ninth win of the season, and Paige Hartz, with her game-winning walk-off RBI double, was named the player of the game.
Under Unami teachers Scott Fischer (16th season) and assistant coach Patrick Mullin (first season), the team compiled an overall record of 15-1 outscoring their opponents 209-27 with seven shutouts. Playing in the Bucks County League’s Northern Division, the eighth grade team went undefeated in their regular season schedule.
Additionally, in his 16th non-consecutive season, head coach Fischer, of Chalfont, earned his 100th victory and ended the season with 114 career wins. He has taught social studies at Unami Middle School for 28 years and also previously had coached for seven years as part of the local Lenape Valley softball program.
Both coaches look forward to coaching next year’s team.
