Lady Loggers win softball divisional, head for state

When deciding to take a journey, most would take the simplest path to their destination. Not the Libby Lady Loggers softball team. Sure they began that way, sweeping through two wins on Friday, first a 15-5 win over Loyola Sacred Heart and then a 3-2 win over Mission Valley Christian Academy. Saturday, however took a twist early with a loss to Florence-Carlton 6-5, putting Libby on a long path if they wanted a championship. They did. With another win over Loyola, the Lady Loggers had to take two in a row from Florence to win the title. They dominated, winning game one 11-3, and topping the Falcons again 12-10 to win divisionals and return to the state championship tournament after missing out last year.
