Big week on tap for Avonworth softball team

Written by Sports Town on .

Three games in four days are on top this week for the Avonworth softball team who remains in playoff contention. The Antelopes are 3-6 overall and 3-4 in Section 1-AA where they sit behind Seton-LaSalle (7-0), Keystone Oaks (8-1), Our Lady of the Sacred Heart (6-2) and Brentwood (4-5).

Avonworth has some ground to make up but a look back at their schedule shows they are only a few runs from being in third place. Avonworth was hard luck losers against Keystone Oaks in a 16-15 game and at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart in an 8-7 setback.

The schedule favors Avonworth from here on out. It has two remaining games against Bishop Canevin, a 3-7 team. This week it faces Carlynton on April 23 and Keystone Oaks on April 24. It won its first meeting over Carlynton and lost to Keystone Oaks by one run.
