The Fishers rally started with a single by Regan Sharp who advanced to third on a well executed bunt by Robyn Berkel. After a Brittany Sugg single and a fielder’s choice by Megan Lalioff, that failed to get the lead runner and loaded the bases. Up stepped Wesley, a junior outfielder, and her blast sent Fishers ahead 5-3.
Emily Richardson doubled and eventually scored on a grounder by Aly Hendricks to make it 6-3.
Both teams scored runs in the fourth and Westfield added one in the 7th to make it 7-5.

Freshman Jessica Lorenz quenches her thirst during a break in action on a hot day at the Noblesville tennis courts. She won a three-set match, giving Fishers a much-needed victory at No. 3 singles.
It’s not easy beating a good team three times in the same season, but the Fishers tennis team found a way to do it.
HSE senior Kristie Hsu went out a winner at No. 1 singles.
And it took a real gut check to get it done.
The No. 7 Lady Tigers, in search of the school’s first sectional in girls tennis, defeated Hamilton No. 12 Southeastern 3-2 in the opening round of the Noblesville Sectional on Wednesday.
That’s the identical score of their May 3 match, and the Lady Tigers won the Hoosier Crossroads Conference tourney on Saturday by 2 points over the Lady Royals.

Fishers (16-1) came back after losing the first set in all three singles matches, as well as the opening set at No. 2 doubles.
“I think it’s about time for a rally,’’ coach Don Roesler said as he surveyed the situation.
Indeed they did rally. Make that a big-time rally . . . as the veteran coach kept offering words of encouragement to his squad as he went from one match to another.
It came down to freshman Jessica Lorenz, whose victory at No. 3 singles was the determining factor in Fishers’ first HCC championship. On Wednesday, she got past senior Taylor Grayson in three sets, 3-6, 6-0, 6-1.
And it came down to the Fishers doubles teams coming through in the clutch, especially at No. 2 doubles, where Catlin Gardner and Jayne Henn pulled out a three-set, 2-6, 6-1, 6-2 victory. That was the same scenario — No. 3 singles and both doubles — for Fishers’ victory against HSE on May 3.
The Lady Tigers will advance to Saturday’s 10 a.m. championship against the host Lady Millers, who defeated Hamilton Heights 5-0.
Southeastern’s points came at No. 1 singles where senior Kristie Hsu defeated junior Kailey Eaton 6-3, 6-4 for the third time this season, and at No. 2 singles, where junior Kelly Iden prevailed 6-1, 6-3 against Denmark exchange student Benedicte Hejgaard 6-1, 6-3.
