Our final Spring sport, girls softball played Tuesday, April 23 against Centennial High School for third in league. The third place in league will make playoffs, and our Lady Mustangs came out on top with a 2-1 victory and a spot in playoffs. I asked Junior Alyssa Argomaniz “How it feels to make playoffs? When was the last time the ERHS softball team made the playoffs? What are the teams expectations?” and, “What message she wants to give her team?”
Argomaniz: “It is such a great feeling to make CIF especially going to plaoffs with my closest friends. The last time ERHS softball mae playoffs was the year right before my freshman year, so in 2016. Our team expectations and plans are to win CIF and become a more known school around the high school softball community. My message to my team would be to finish strong and work together as a team to accomplishing our goal of winning CIF.”
Mustangs, come out to watch your favorite spring sports team as they finish their seasons and make a run for CIF titles. Come back next week to “This Week in Sports” for updates.
