In what would be considered a strategic move by Head Coach Joel Hultman with softball districts approaching in just over a week, senior ace McKayla Blackburn did not pitch on Monday night, as the Trenton Lady Bulldogs traveled to Marceline to play the Lady Tigers. Without Blackburn in the circle, the Lady Bulldogs struggled to keep the powerful Lady Tiger offense off the board, as MHS rolled to a 15-5 win, dropping Trenton’s record to 13-7 on the season.
