Mountain View 6,

Mountain Home 1

The Lady Tigers closed out the ISG schedule against Mountain View on a sour note as they lost to the Lady Mavericks, 1-6.

Madi Karst suffered the loss, giving up all six runs and got relief help from Heather Adams.

Mountain Home Lady Tiger softball coach Chris Asbury talked about his girls' efforts over the weekend.

"Day one was kind of disappointing," he said. "We definitely didn't play our best ball. But day two we bounced back and had a good showing against Madison and a very respectable showing against a top 5A team in Mountain View."

The Lady Tigers, now 5-4 on the season, returned to conference action this week. They faced Skyview on Monday before heading on the road to take on Kuna on Thursday, April 5, followed by Columbia on Friday.
