TIPP CITY — Benjamin Logan’s softball team overcame a little bit of unexpected adversity to win a district championship here Saturday.

The Raiders found themselves trailing late against an East Clinton team that came into the game with just eight wins on the season.
However, Ben Logan found a way to survive and advance, getting a run in the bottom of the sixth to tie the game and another run in the bottom of the seventh to pull out a 5-4 victory in a Division III district title game.
“I think it took a little bit of time for the girls to settle down today,” said Ben Logan head coach Amanda Davis. “During one of my trips to the mound early in the game, I told them they just needed to relax and play with confidence.”
