American Legion roundup: Rochester moves on
NASHUA – Jarrid Nason likes to work quickly. Once the Rochester Post 7 pitcher found his rhythm, Concord Post 21 didn’t have much of a chance.

Bedford hangs on to beat Dover
NASHUA – Tim Conway didn’t want to have to make a pitching change Saturday night, but it looked like he might have to.

Coffey Post offense explodes in win over Concord
NASHUA – The last eight days have been something else for Nashua Coffey Post 3.

Big inning lifts Concord past Goffstown
NASHUA – Concord could have gone into the bottom of the eighth inning with its collective head down. Post 21 had given up an unearned run in the top of the inning to allow Goffstown Post 16 to tie the game at 5. That came after Concord had blown a 3-0 lead in the sixth inning. But instead, Concord took advantage of four Goffstown errors to [...]
Bedford takes advantage of Rochester errors to pull out win
