Softball
Softball had its season end yesterday in the regional tournament as well. The tournament was held in Wathena.
The Chargers were able to escape the first round with a 5-4 win over Riverside on Monday. The Chargers were down 4-1 early, but were able to come back. The Chargers faced the second seed Troy in the regional semi-final yesterday, falling 5-2.
Softball ended the season with a 11-11 record. They will lose two seniors: Jordan Magette and Ryleigh Jones. Jones will play softball at Cloud County Community College and Magette will play softball at Barton Community College.
“We had a good season,” said head softball coach Joe Dee Tarbutton. “It was productive. We are very young. We lost two seniors that were very good and we’ll miss them. We will have a very good team next season.”
The track team is the final group competing this season, and will head to regionals at Valley Heights Friday afternoon.
