You want drama? The Nashua High School South softball team has plenty for you – as well as runs — as they beat the Exeter Blue Hawks in walk-off fashion on Tuesday.

More? Two Hollis Brookline pitchers combined for a baseball no-hitter. How’s that for a big day?

There were other close games in a light schedule before the storms came, so let’s look at everything:
