Scotch Plains-Fanwood High School softball team claims first Union County title since 1977 .

The Raiders beat Summit 4 -2 at Kean University in Union County Tournament final.

Junior shortstop Emily Roof ’s two -run homer in the third inning snapped a tie and proved to be the game winner.

The win capped a long road back for a program that had struggled mightily for years .

Summit's Olivia DiSalvo came on to pitch the rest of the game, getting two strikeouts to end the sixth inning and then sidestepping a leadoff double by Caroline Putnam in the seventh to close it out.

Coach Giannacio : “The first thing she said when she came to on the ground is, Is my face ok?”.
