AP - Late last year, when I was playing Valve's brilliant puzzle game "Portal," I felt a weird sensation: Laughter.

What really threw me was the idea that a video game could make me laugh out loud.

Noblesville, very quickly, has become the giant killer of 2008 postseason softball play. Unranked in the state and considered no better than the third best team in the most loaded sectional in the state, Saturday morning at NHS Coach Mike Ramsey’s exciting Lady Millers upset No. 9 rated and defending state champion Hamilton Southeastern 1-0 in a down-to-the wire thriller. Earlier in the tournament, Noblesville eliminated No. 2 ranked Carmel.

Fans who enjoy extra inning thrillers and down to the wire finishes got their money’s worth on Memorial Day in the opening round of the Class 4A Westfield Sectional. In the opener, Fishers rode the pitching of senior Kurt Kellogg and a walk-off single in the bottom of the eighth by senior catcher Matt Hitt to a 1-0 victory over backyard neighbor Hamilton Southeastern. In the second game, Westfield got strong pitching from junior Kyle Kramp and timely hitting in defeating Zionsville 5-3. The Shamrocks and Tigers are scheduled to meet tonight in a 5:30 p.m. semifinal

The win sends Fishers into a 5:30 p.m. match up with Westfield this evening in the semifinal round of the tourney. “It was huge hit by Matt,” Cherry added. Earlier in the game, in the seventh inning, Hitt was thrown out at

After falling behind 1-0 in the top of the first inning, Guerin bounced back with five runs in the bottom of the frame. The Golden Eagles closed the deal

The tournament level was semi-state, but the battle between the Carmel and Park Tudor girls tennis teams was anything but semi-fierce. The two teams met in the North Central semi-state championship Saturday, with the three-time defending state champion Panthers edging the Greyhounds 3-2. The win sent Park Tudor to next Saturday’s state championship, where it will try to join Evansville Memorial as the only team to win four consecutive state crowns. Third-ranked Carmel was trying to get back into the state finals for the first time since 2003, and didn’t let the top-ranked Panthers have anything easy. “There
