Lady Huskies down Dukes for first time in seven years

Aurora rallies late for 12-8 win over York Thursday

Aurora’s Adi Fahrnbruch slides into second just ahead of the tag during a 6-1 win over Centennial Aug. 31. Fahrnbruch has five stolen bases on the year so far and is hitting .432 at the plate.

Not even Mother Nature herself could keep Aurora from adding to its impressive start to the season.
Aurora trailed at York 8-6 and was just stepping to the plate to start the sixth when the skies opened up.
After a brief weather delay, Aurora rallied with six runs in the final two innings to defeat York on the road, 12-8.
Aurora coach Ashton Voss explained that seeing the Lady Huskies battle back through adversity from its opponent and the weather itself was a big confidence boost.
“I think that win showed a lot of resilience from the girls,” she said. “I see a lot of drive and focus with this team that I haven’t seen in years past.”
Once the teams took the field again after the rain downpour, Eva Fahrnbruch drove in little sister Adi to start the inning, making it an 8-7 game.
