Cecilia Fuller got the game-winning hit for Cony, a two-out single in the fourth inning that plated a pair of runs. South Portland starter Erin Bogdanovich issued three of her four walks during the inning to set up fuller’s game-winner.
The Rams managed just three hits off Bogdanovich who struck out 13. Morse struck out 10. The win completes a perfect season for Cony at 20-0 and is the school’s first softball championship since 1983. Western Maine champion South Portland finishes at 17-3.
