SPRING VALLEY, WI – It might sound like limping into the postseason, but the Spring Valley softball team struggled in one game last week then played a solid game resulting in a loss in the second.
The pair of losses dropped the Cardinals to 2-14 on the season, 1-12 in conference play with one conference game left on the schedule (this past Monday at Mondovi) and a non-conference game scheduled for Tuesday, both are weather dependent of course.
The Cardinals were seeded eighth of ten teams in the WIAA Sectionals over the weekend, which resulted in the Cardinals hosting their opening round game of the WIAA Tournament today, Thursday, May 22, 2025, at 5:00, in Spring Valley against the #9 seeded New Auburn Trojans, with an 0-11 record overall and 0-9 in the Lakeland East Conference. The winner of the game will play at #1 seeded Thorp Cardinals on Tuesday, May 27 for the chance to advance to the sectional semifinals on Thursday.
