The Mansfield Christian Flames saw their softball tournament run end Tuesday evening, falling to Seneca East in the Division IV district semifinal at Shelby by a final of 10-7.  Seneca East jumped on Mansfield Christian for five runs early on, getting two in the second, then picking up three more in the top of the third.  Most of the Tiger's offense came off the bats of Jessica Enders who had three hits and five RBIs and Renee Snavely who had two hits and three RBIs.  Mansfield Christian came up with a single run in the bottom of the third to make it 5-1, but the Tigers would get that run back in the top of the sixth making the count 6-1 heading into the bottom of the inning.

That's when the Flames rallied with five runs in the bottom of the sixth, helped along by three Seneca East errors.   Maddie Jackson, Haley Gray, Jordan Maiyer and Charlinta Adkins all had consecutive hits.  A walk, single and a third error later the score was even at six all.  But the Flames rally would end in the eighth inning with the Tigers getting four runs off three walks, a hit batter and two hits.  Mansfield Chrisitian added a single run in the bottom of the inning but came up short by a final of 10-7. 

The Flames see their tournament run end as sectional champs after upsetting Col.Crawford 2-1, a week ago.  Seneca East moves on to the D-4 district final Friday at Shelby at 5pm against Buckeye Central or Crestline.
