Regaining the .500 mark at 3-3, Wilson trimmed Medina 7-4 in a N-O game at Vets Park this afternoon.

Breaking away from a 2-2 tie, Wilson regained the lead for good by scoring twice in the fifth inning on a single by Julia Faery and a fielders choice play as a double by Julianna Levesque set up the threat.

Medina did rally for two runs in the bottom of the seventh on a double by Paige Adkins and a fielders choice play. Faith Oberther followed up with a double and Lily Joe Carpenter a bunt single but both were left stranded.

Medina is now 3-3.
