Discussion

IMPORTANT: Comments that include a personal attack on other commenters will be deleted in their entirety. Your comments are not welcome here if you can't maintain a civil tone.

PLEASE NOTE: There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

ALSO NOTE: Derisive name-calling of an individual or group will result in the entire comment being deleted. This includes the terms "stupid" and "idiot" and similar references.

Welcome to our new online comments feature. Before you can join the discussion, you must first register with Disqus and verify your email address.

Once you do, your comments will post after they have been reviewed by a moderator.

We welcome your thoughts and your opinions, including unpopular ones. We ask only that you keep the conversation civil and clean.

Not all comments are deemed printable. Some are disqualified, at the newspaper’s discretion, for a number of reasons. Here are some typical practices to avoid in trying to get your comment printed:

There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

Don’t state as a fact something that is unsubstantiated or that our editors wouldn't know to be true.

Don’t presume someone’s guilt in a case when it hasn't been established by a court.

Don’t assail or impugn an identifiable individual or group. If you have that kind of criticism, sign your name and submit it as a Letter to the Editor. (There is some leeway on this in connection with public officials, but it is not unconditional.)

Don’t use profanity. This includes the term “tea bagger.”

Don’t be incendiary or tasteless. Those qualities are subjective, of course, and our editors will be the arbiters.

Do not identify yourself in the main content area of the article content form. Only by enforcing this rule can the moderators prevent unscrupulous commenters from falsely identifying themselves as someone they are not.

Don't type in all caps. It is considered the Internet equivalent of shouting.

In sports articles, do not criticize officiating.

Remember, moderators are not allowed to edit any article comments. If an article comment fails any of the above criteria, the entire comment will be deleted.

We monitor comments Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Approval of comments outside these times may be delayed.

Adams Glass lets one slip away

-- Press-Republican

COLCHESTER, Vt. — Colchester rallied for four runs in the top of the seventh inning Saturday and held on for a 6-3 victory over Adams Glass in the Vermont Senior Babe Ruth state baseball tournament.

Adams Glass (14-11-2), 1-1 in the double-elimination event, had its winning streak come to an end and will play the winner of the Lyndon/Middlebury game at 11 a.m. today, with the winner taking on Colchester in the 2 p.m. finals.

Adams Glass held a 3-2 lead entering the seventh when Jared Cayla doubled in two runs and Pat Walker singled in another.

Cayla and Walker rapped out three hits each, with Cayla getting two doubles, in a 9-hit Colchester attack. Chris Poirier, the second of three Colchester pitchers, picked up the win.

Adams Glass had the tying run at the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning, but a nice running catch in right field ended the game.

Nick Uliva, Kyle Sprague and Austin House led Adams Glass with two hits each. The Peru-based team finished with nine hits in all, with Conor Casey, Garrett McLean and Luis Pepen Matos getting singles.

Pepen Matos pitched into the seventh inning while taking the loss.
