Lehigh Valley softball team advances to Carpenter Cup final

http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/sports/index.ssf/2012/06/lehigh_valley_softball_team_ad.html FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES With its 4-0 victory over Berks County/Lancaster-Lebanon League, Lehigh Valley has advanced to Thursday's championship in the 2012 softball Carpenter Cup Classic in Philadelphia's F.D.R. Park. Lehigh Valley put two across in the bottom of the third, then got another two courtesy a sixth-inning double to the wall in left-center by Joelle Morey of Bethlehem Catholic. Pitchers Olivia Marcks of Emmaus and Northampton's Marly Laubach combined for a four-hit shutout. A win in the 11 a.m. contest, against an opponent to be determined, will give Lehigh Valley an unprecedented third title, its first since 2008.
