The Milan Lady Wildcats hit turbulence in the 2017 softball season, after winning six games in a row, the Lady ‘Cats struggled in a 10-0 loss at Maysville on the final night of August, before blowing a 9-1 lead in a late innings on Tuesday night, in a 10-9 loss at South Harrison. Â Making matters more challenging for Milan is a toughening schedule that sees the likes of Trenton and North Harrison visiting Legion Field over the next week.
For the football Wildcats, hope springs eternal that a tough start to the season, with three losses in as many weeks, will see the Wildcats benefit from a tough stretch of games against strong foes in Mark Twain, South Callaway, and Princeton. Â Adding to the boost in spirits throughout the hallways at MHS is that the long-time rival from the north, the Putnam County Midgets, are at “The Pit” this Friday night, with both teams looking for their first win of the season. Â Friday night’s game can be heard live on KTTN FM 92.3.
The weekly Milan coaches interviews, with Sports Director Tom Johnson, originally aired at 5:35 on Thursday evening on KTTN.
