Editor's note: Wednesday's game with Parkland now comes after Northampton Press deadlines.

Rain, rain, go away. Sally and her girls want to play.

Sally is Coach Sally Whittaker-Kahan and her girls are the Northampton softball team.

The second-seed Konkrete Kids were slated to play No. 3 seed Parkland in the District 11 semifinals Tuesday, but rain washed it out.

Instead the Kids (20-2) and the Trojans (16-5) were to try again Wednesday night in the first game of a District 11 4A doubleheader at Allentown's Patriot's Park. The game now comes after Northampton Press deadlines.

Defending champion Liberty, the No. 5 seed, and top-seeded team Pleasant Valley were scheduled to face off in the second game.

Northampton already has two victories over Parkland, 8-0 on Marly Laubach's one hitter and 7-0 on Laubach's no-hitter. The Kids also have defeated Liberty and Pleasant Valley in the regular season.

Northampton got to the semifinals with a 1-0 victory over Pottsville (16-7) Saturday afternoon while Parkland eliminated Emmaus 10-0.

In Saturday's win, the Kids won in the eighth inning when Kendra Makovsky beat out an infield grounder for a hit with two out and Amber Saylor came in to run for her.

Senior Lauren Brosky followed with her second hit of the game - a single to right-center - and the right fielder misplayed the hit and Saylor came all the way around to score.

The win was Laubach's 20th of the season and 14th shutout as she gave up only one hit and struck out 12.

Laubach now has 248 strikeouts.

Coach Whittaker-Kahan said, "We're ready for the next team, no matter who. We just get things done and take advantage of the chances we get. Sometimes it's not pretty, but we usually get things done."

Against Pottsville, the Kids had five hits - one each from Leandra Sterner, Taylor Kerbacher, and Makovsky and two from Brosky.

"But we've got to get more and Laubach has to keep Parkland's batters off balance," said Whittaker-Kahan.

Pottsville had only two runners, and both came in the Tide's fourth inning with one out when Abby Dusel was hit by a pitch, sacrificed to second and losing pitcher Caitlin Hernden got an infield single before Keera Bulino grounded out to Brosky at second.
