Just rambling off some softball scores

Didn't have much time to do a full score report from tonight's softball tourney games. You can view most of them on everyone's favorite, JJHuddle www.jjhuddle.com.

So, some scores that stood out for me.

Division 4 power and state title contender Strasburg-Franklin is out! Done in by Steubenville Catholic Central 2-1 in district finals. Here's a story about the game:

#1 Convoy Crestview made some mistakes, but still a homerun by all-state Melissa Eickholt proved to be enough as the Knights won their fourth consecutive district title and 8th in 10 years over Mt. Blanchard Riverdale 4-2. Here's a story about their game:
