Whitchester firstbaseman and starting pitcher Chelsie Trask stretches to grab a throw to first, but Proctor's Maggie McKearin beat out the thrown in a tight game. Whitchester defeated Proctor 8-7 in walk-off fashion to capture the Division IV softball championship in Castleton on Saturday evening. The Mountaineers victory was bittersweet as it was their last game before Rochester closes and Whitcomb merges with South Royalton next school year. (Herald / Ben DeFlorio)
