LISBON VOLLEYBALL TEAM ASKS YOU TO CHOOSE JOY

/in /by

LISBON, OH- The Lisbon community has overcome so much tragedy and adversity in the last year or so, but through the tragedy comes triumph- and all because one young lady and her family have asked the community to “choose joy.”

On May 22, 2020, the lives of the Edenfield family changed in an unimaginable way, when their youngest of three daughters, Melina Michelle Edenfield — a joyful, energetic, and brilliant little four-year-old — was diagnosed with a deadly childhood brain tumor called Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG). Despite initial hope from the doctors that radiation treatment might extend her already limited prognosis, the tumor was one of the most aggressive the doctors had seen, and just a month and two days later — on June 24 , 2020 — the tumor took sweet little Melina’s life.

Since that moment, Lisbon has rallied around the Edenfield’s, and next week will be no different.  Lisbon will host United for what was last year the “Volley for a Cure” game, and this year has changed to “Volley for Melina” thanks to Lisbon Coach Maddie Wrask, and her team.  September 23rd will mark the game, as the month of September is Childhood Awareness Month, and the team is looking to raise money and awareness for childhood brain tumors.

There will be Chinese auctions as well as items for sale for attendees to support, donations will also be accepted that night as well.

Our DJ Yokley had the honor to sit down with Coach Wrask and a few members of her team, as well as Keith Edenfield to discuss the event, and what it means to them.

LISBON PLAYS FOR BIGGER THINGS

/in /by

TORNTO OH- Some things as they say are bigger than football. No program understands that right now more than Lisbon. Friday night was the first time Lisbon was able to get back on the field after losing one of their own. Being on the field meant wonders for the Blue Devils, and so did the support of their opponent. Both teams met at midfield before the start of the game for a moment of prayer. When the action started Toronto took control of the game early and never looked back. They beat Lisbon 41-26.

Giovanni Estrada ran hard for Lisbon gaining 134 yards on the ground and scoring two touchdowns. Both scores came in the second half. Logan Stauffer threw for 67 yards, and ran for 34 and a touchdown.

Lisbon ventures in to the EOAC next week as they travel to Southern.

LISBON SEES THEIR RUN END

/in /by

WARREN OH- Both teams had winning records on the season, but only one was able to come out on top, as it was the Semi finals at Candlelite Knolls Banquet Facility between the lady Brookfield Warriors with a record of 12 and six against the Lady Blue Devils of Lisbon with a record of 14-5.  Not only that, but this game would decide who would take on the Lady Braves of Badger and the Lady Mustangs of Matthew.  

 

The first few innings saw it close with it being two to nothing Warriors after an error by McKenna Dailey which sent Izzy Shingledecker home.  The next run was in the bottom third when Autumn Sirochman singled on a line drive with Grace Shultz scoring.  

 

Lisbon would get their first and only run of the game in the top of the fourth when Mallory Gallo singled on a line drive to center field with Dailey getting the run, cutting it to a one run lead.  The Lady Warriors had two more runs in the bottom of the fourth with Schultz singling on a hard grounder with Katie Logan scoring and then Sophia Hook scoring on a Sirochman single.  

 

After a scoreless fifth inning where both teams showed tremendous pitching by both Mya Emmerling and Miranda Nicholson who both came into the game with winning records, the bottom of the sixth happened which made the game turn a complete 180, going from a close semi final game to a home run contest.  

 

The first home run was when Hook homered on a fly ball to right field sending her and Cadence Huffman home.  The next one would be Abby DeJoy homering to center with her and Schultz scoring.  Shingledecker would then homer which would then be it for Emmerling who was then replaced by Morgan Lively.  That would have a little impact at first, but was not fully effective as Huffman would earn a three run homer with Jenae Pugh and Arianna Jones scoring ending the game with a mercy rule of 12 to one after nearly a full game.  

 

Emmerling surrendered 12 runs on 16 hits over five and two-thirds innings, striking out four and walking zero before she was replaced late into the game.  Nicholas pitched a near full game only giving up one run on three hits over six innings, striking out nine and walking zero.  

 

UP NEXT

Brookfield (16-8) will take on Matthews (22-4) who got a big 13-0 shutout victory against the Lady Braves of Badger.  This will be the finals Wednesday at Candlelite Knolls at 5pm.  Lisbon finishes their season at 14-6.

Southington Chalker’s only offense came from a ground out, scoring one run.

Lisbon tallied nine hits in the game. Kaity Clark and Morgan Lively all managed multiple hits for Coach Crismon’s squad. Clark led Lisbon with three hits in four at-bats.  Justyce Vrable would also score twice for Lisbon
