Bowling Green and Perrysburg were both looking for that small window of opportunity to score a run Thursday afternoon in a Division I sectional softball championship game at BGHS.
After five scoreless innings, each team scored in the sixth inning.
The Bobcats then scored the eventual game-winning run on a wild pitch in the top of the seventh inning to slip past the Yellow Jackets, 2-1.
The next tournament action for the Bobcats, now 5-17, is Tuesday at 5 p.m. against Fremont Ross at the Tiffin University sports complex.
‘‘We just had a good feeling about tonight,’’ said BG’s Hanna Williford. ‘‘It feels great to win this game. We have had a hard season.
‘‘We just keep saying when it gets to tournament time, we can really win some games, we believe in ourselves. To just come out and actually do it, it was really exciting.’’

Steve Slocum’s two defensive gems saved Perrysburg’s baseball team on a day the Yellow Jackets and Fremont Ross struggled to make plays.
The center fielder threw out the tying run at home in the fifth inning Thursday and the Yellow Jackets held on to win a sectional championship with a 5-3 victory at Carter Park.
The Yellow Jackets held a 3-2 lead when Ross’ Tyler Wolf tried to score from second base on Spencer Conklin’s hard-hit single to center with one out.
But Slocum charged the ball and threw to Kyle Durham at home. The Perrysburg catcher easily tagged out Wolf, who came in standing up.
Perrysburg ended the inning with a grounder to second and added single runs in the fifth and sixth to clinch the win.
The Yellow Jackets, ranked sixth in Division I, return to Carter Park next Thursday to play Mansfield Madison in a district semifinal at 4:15 p.m.

MAUMEE — Maria Horrigan’s ultimate goal is to win a state championship.
For now, though, the Bowling Green sophomore is taking her season one day at a time.
Her approach is paying off.
Horrigan won the pole vault during Wednesday’s opening night of the Northern Lakes League track and field championships at Maumee High School.
The championship was part of a big night for Horrigan, who won the long jump earlier in the meet and qualified for the finals of the 200 after winning the pole vault.
Perrysburg also won two league championships as it swept the 3,200 relays.
Horrigan cleared 11-0 in the pole vault to beat runnerup Bryn Langenderfer of Springfield at 10-6. No other vaulter went higher than 9-6.
The NLL pole vault was the second straight for Horrigan, who set the league record last season at 11-3.
