Brandon Valley softball coach Corey Christensen wants another swing at the Harrisburg Tigers. And the Lady Lynx may get that opportunity, but it won’t happen until the Oct. 2-3 state tournament.
After playing all the way through the loser’s bracket to the title game three years running, the Lady Lynx softball team fell a few wins shy this season, finishing fifth at the state fastpitch tournament Oct. 5-6 in Sioux Falls.
The Eastern South Dakota Conference title slipped through the hands of the Lady Lynx Saturday, as Harrisburg nabbed the league title Saturday at Aspen Park in Brandon.
Brandon Valley’s varsity softball team stayed in the game until the end, but they couldn’t recover from Mitchell’s fourth-inning surge that put the Kernels on top of Thursday’s 4-3 outcome.
