Historical Season for Lady Longhorn Softball!
The Lady Longhorns broke into the record books this softball season to earn the first softball district championship in Gordon High School history. They finished the season with a record of 9-8 overall, 7-5 in District 11.
“This is the first district championship in the history of Gordon softball [in] just our sixth year to play,” said Lady Longhorns head coach Jerry Tomlin. “Last year, we were the first team from Gordon to qualify for the playoffs and beat Tioga in the first round [but] were just 4-6 in district. We are much improved.”
As the 1A–D11 champs, the Lady Longhorns earned a bye in the first round of the playoffs. In a second-round regional quarterfinal playoff, they will take on the Gorman in Glen Rose, Thursday, May 3rd, at 8:00 P.M.
Way to go Lady Longhorns! We are proud of you!
