The Lady Trojans’ postseason dreams were ended by the Orangefield Lady Bobcats in the area round of the state softball championships.
On Thursday, Coldspring lost 8-2, and on Friday, the Lady Trojans were blanked 12-0 behind cold bats and a senior-packed opponent.
Even so, Izzy Doggett picked up a 2-run home run in the 4th inning, driving in Trinity Rosales.
