Softball won on Senior vs Edgewood 11-3, Molly Van Gorden had a triple and 5 runs batted in, and Lilly Iden had her 60th hit of the year, in only 96 at bats, she ends her regular season with a .625 average, that leads qualified hitters in the SWOC by a wide margin. The ladies take this momentum into the Postseason as they host Little Miami tonight at home at 5pm.

Baseball took one of two against Ross over the weekend and won the three game set, the boys are at home all week, and they begin with Fairfield tonight at 5.

Henry Hoblitzell won the Pole Vault at the Mason Invite on Friday, Track and Field has the SWOC tournament tomorrow at home.
