PADGETT POWERS LIBERTY TO VICTORY

At Bedford, Jerry Padgett hit a two-run home run that put his team ahead to stay and gave himself the pitching win in Liberty's 6-3 baseball victory over William Campbell, the Seminole District teams' season-opener. The game was called after five innings because of darkness.

At Moneta, Rustburg scored four unearned runs to top Staunton River 4-3 in both clubs' Seminole District opener.

At Northside, Glenvar and Northside battled to a 1-1 tie in a game suspended after six innings by darkness. Northside's Allen Christian pitched six innings, striking out seven, walking none and allowing one unearned run. Glenvar's David Henderson struck out seven and walked none in five innings.

Bobby Warnick scored twice and Jaime Garaent once for Cave Spring in the 3-1 season-opening soccer victory over Roanoke Catholic.

At Glenvar, Dede Aldrich and Tracy Doupnik combined on a four-hitter, leading William Byrd to a 4-1 softball win over the Highlanders in a season-opener.
