By Chris Johnson on April 26, 2024
The Bridgeport High School softball team will begin postseason play on the road Monday.
The Indians (5-17) are the No. 4 seed and will play at No. 1 University at 5 p.m. in the opening round of the Class AAA Region I, Section 2 tournament on Monday. The same day, No. 2 Buckhannon-Upshur will be at home to play No. 3 Preston.
The tournament is double elimination so the winners will meet on Tuesday, and Monday's losers will meet Tuesday in an elimination game.
A sectional champion will be crowned no later than Friday, May 3.
Gracie Knight went 3-for-3 with two RBIs, Kennedy Wolfe drove in a pair of runs and five different BHS players scored at least two runs in a 15-2 win against East Fairmont on Wednesday.
On Thursday, BHS lost to Philip Barbour, 12-0. Addison Veigel had the lone hit for the Indians as Philip Barbour's Avery McDaniel tossed a complete-game one-hit shutout. McDaniel also led the Colts' offense, going 3-for-3, with a home run, double and four RBIs.
The Indians' regular-season finale will be today at Lincoln. Game time is set for 5 p.m.
