THS softball closes out regular season winning 4 of last 5
The Tonganoxie High softball team’s momentum heading into the postseason could be a big plus when regionals start next week.
THS enters the postseason at 13-7. The Chieftains also are winners of four of their last five and seven of their last nine.
Most recently, Tonganoxie knocked off a 7-12 Ottawa team, 6-2, on April 30 at Ottawa and then finished out the regular season Monday at Jeff West splitting at doubleheader.
Tonganoxie won the first game, 3-0, and then Jeff West (11-12) answered with a 3-0 victory in Game 2.
THS currently is the No. 8 seed. Many teams still have games to play before regionals, but THS could be looking at a trip west to the Rock Creek Regional near Manhattan. Rock Creek currently is the No. 1 seed at 17-3 in the East Bracket. Eudora is No. 2 at 18-4, Wamego No. 3 at 16-4 and Fort Scott No. 4 at 17-5.
