Coach Rick Hartzell leads his Lady Warriors into the playoffs at Pendleton County on Thursday at 4:30 p.m.

In a dramatic turnaround, the Lady Warriors improved their regular season record by 700 percent over last season. The PCHS softball squad finished out their regular season with a 19-6 win at Webster County last Friday to secure a winning 7-6 record. Last season, the team won just one game.

Whatever happens on Thursday, fans should be very happy with the team’s improved performance this season. And things are really looking up for the young Lady Warriors. Next season, the team will be minus just one senior – Bethany Arbogast – and have a great crop of younger players ready to step up and lead the team to the next level.

Where that level will be is entirely up to the Lady Warriors. If they continue to support each other, play as a team and honor the sport by giving 100 percent, the next level will be a regional victory and a trip to the state playoffs.
