TUESDAY, MAY 14
SOFTBALL: 4A CHAMPIONSHIP (Arizona)
No. 1 Salpointe over No. 2 Cactus, 6-5 (8)
SOFTBALL: 2A CHAMPIONSHIP (ASU)
No. 3 Camp Verde over No. 1 Benson, 10-7
BASEBALL: 5A CHAMPIONSHIP (Diablo)
No. 2 Horizon over No. 1 Nogales, 7-6 (16)
Is it possible for history to repeat itself? I guess it depends on one’s point of view. For Salpointe, a 6-5 victory over Cactus Tuesday night at Hillenbrand Stadium on the University of Arizona campus gave the Lancers their second 4A state championship in a row over the Cobras. For Cactus, controversy once again came into play…..
