Mustang Softball Team Opens State Tourney at Home
|– Allison Goldsberry
The MHS softball team is making another appearance in the state tournament this season.
The 16-3 Mustangs are the fourth seed out of eighteen teams in North Division 1. They have a bye in the preliminary round and host Boston Latin at Columbus Park on Saturday at 4:00 PM. Boston Latin, 12-8, is seeded thirteenth.
The winner will advance to the quarter final round to face either Billerica (12th, 14-8) or Lexington (5th, 16-4).
Last season the Lady Mustangs made school softball history by advancing to the final round of the North Division 1 tournament. They beat Beverly, Lowell, Boston Latin, and Central Catholic during their state tourney run before a heart-breaking loss to Methuen.
