GLENWOOD CITY, WI – It was a tough week for the Cardinals softball team as their game last Monday was rained out, pushing their week’s games even tighter together. The Spring Valley softball team had three varsity games scheduled and one JV game on Saturday, that’s a lot to get into a week and with one less day – even more.
The team played well in all three varsity games for the week, but just couldn’t manage to come out on the top side of the scoreboard, losing at Colfax, Glenwood City and Unity to drop to 3-4 overall on the season, 1-3 in the Dunn-St. Croix Conference. Competition this week will be tough as well, with games against Durand this past Monday and Elk Mound Thursday both at home. Next week the Cardinals play at Mondovi on Monday (April 22, 2024) and at home against Mondovi on Tuesday (April 23). The team will also host Boyceville on Thursday, April 25.
Colfax 10, Spring Valley 2 – Colfax was playing the second game of a double-header, having previously beaten Boyceville. The Vikings rescheduled the game from Monday to Tuesday and played it this way to get it in. The Cardinals were hoping that Boyceville had worn out the play of the Vikings.
