MARLBOROUGH – The Marlborough Shamrocks eked out a 19-14 win over the Southern Maine Raging Bulls on their home field Aug. 7.
Bolstered by a packed crowd in the home bleachers of Kelleher Field in town, the Shamrocks improved their season win-loss record to 6-0.

The Shamrocks later sealed the victory in the second half after entering halftime with the score tied at 7-7.
Marlborough’s next game is slated to take place Saturday, Aug. 14 back at Kelleher Field.
