SULPHUR, La. (KPLC) - Southwest Louisiana will have a pair of chances to bring home a state title this season as Barbe High School and Iowa High School each advanced to the state title game in their respective classes. Also in play was Rosepine, but the Lady Eagles would drop a heartbreaker in extra innings, 1-0.
BARBE 6, PINEVILLE 3
The Lady Bucs return to Class 5A’s biggest stage for the second time in as many tries after their downed No. 7 Pineville, 6-3. Following a 2-0 lead in the first inning, the Lady Bucs would give up a run in three consecutive innings to Pineville to trail 3-2 in the fourth. Nyjah Fontenot’s two-RBI single in the bottom of the inning would give Barbe the lead again for good.
