Most brackets have gone to chalk — more evidence of the effectiveness of the power rankings formula — with no seed lower than 10 remaining in softball, nobody worse than No. 11 Ursuline left in girls’ lacrosse, and No. 11 Shawsheen representing the worst seed still going in boys’ lacrosse.

But in baseball there’s been plenty of upheaval, as eight double-digit seeds made the quarterfinals (13 double-digit seeds made the quarterfinals in all other sports combined) and two No. 1 seeds (Taunton and St. Mary’s) have already fallen. No. 17 Natick and No. 16 Apponequet are still alive, as are 14 seeds Milford and Chelmsford, 13-seed Wakefield, 12-seed Franklin and two 11 seeds: Dennis-Yarmouth and Mount Everett.

Edy Latour, Dighton-Rehoboth — The sophomore lefthander pitched a two-hitter, allowing just one run with seven strikeouts, but it was her hitting that drew the headlines, going 4 for 4 with two doubles and four RBIs in a 13-1 Division 3 second-round win over Medway.

Criss Luna, Charlestown — The junior not only started the game for the Townies on the mound and delivered a game-tying two-run single in the third, but seven innings later he produced a walkoff home run over the fence in left field in the bottom of the 11th, giving the Townies a 3-2 Division 5 second-round win over Bromfield. Next up, City rival English Saturday night.

Liam Williams, Westwood — The junior middie netted his second goal of the game with five seconds remaining to lift the Wolverines’ boys’ lacrosse team into the Division 2 quarterfinals.

No home run was more important Wednesday than Natalia Leach’s, which stood as the only run in Foxborough’s 1-0 win over St. Mary’s in the second round of the Division 3 softball tournament. Milford’s Joe Butler and Ian Carter both cranked two-run shots in No. 14 Milford’s 9-7 upset of No. 3 North Attleborough in the second round of the D2 baseball bracket. Also homering were Dighton-Rehoboth’s Emma Horrocks, Attleboro’s Lola Ronayne and Medway’s Olivia Klaus.

Looking to boost its boys’ basketball program, St. John’s Prep announced the hiring of Corey Lowe to replace David Clay, who stepped down earlier this year for personal reasons.

Lowe coached Newton South the last two years, flipping a 7-13 record to 16-4 in his second season, when he was named Dual County League Coach of the Year. Previously, he led the Bradford Christian Academy girls to a 20-3 record.

“I am blessed to be able to be the next leader of the Eagles program,” said Lowe in a statement. “I will put a lot of focus into the development of all players from our middle school up to the varsity team. Sharpening skills that will allow us to play fast, spaced, and aggressive.”

Lowe, a 2006 Newton North graduate, played four seasons at Boston University and is still the program’s all-time leader in minutes and 3-pointers. He played internationally in Latvia, Israel, and Brazil before injuries ended his playing career.

Lowe takes over an Eagles program that went 2-18 last season and hasn’t made the playoffs since 2019.

“I’m excited to get working with Corey,” Eagles AD Jameson Pelkey said in a statement. ”He has an outstanding background as a player achieving success at the highest levels in high school, college, and professionally.”

Haverhill’s Jordy Oriach has committed to play baseball at Georgia after a breakout season at New Mexico. The 6-foot-5-inch outfielder and 2022 Hillies graduate spent two seasons at Frank Phillips College before hitting .388 with 16 homers and 63 RBIs last season with the Lobos.

Harvard men’s basketball announced its incoming class, which includes Worcester Academy graduate Ryan Sullivan of Auburn. A NEPSAC AA All-League selection, the 6-foot-9-inch, 205-pound forward helped Worcester win three league titles. A four-year varsity baseball player, Sullivan also plays AAU for BABC.

The Boston City League All-Star baseball game will be played Monday at 3:30 p.m. Rosters are expected to be announced Friday.
