CONCORD â The Cannon School softball teamâs bid for an undefeated season came to an end Tuesday when the Cougars fell at home to Charlotte Christian, 14-4.
For Cannon (13-1 overall, 8-1 NCISAA Charlotte Conference), not only does this result end its pursuit of perfection; the Cougars could have clinched the league title with a win.

Instead, their regular-season finale at home against Matthews Covenant Day on Thursday will likely be for just a share of the title with Charlotte Christian (12-1, 6-1 CC). The Cougarsâ only chance of winning the outright title is if they defeat Covenant Day while Charlotte Christian loses its final game against Charlotte Latin.
