The Blackduck High School softball team finished sixth at the Class A state tournament.

It was the program’s first state tournament bid for a girls athletic team.

The Drakes' season ended with a 4 -1 loss to Clinton-Graceville-Beardsley , the No. 2 seed.

With plenty of those players returning next year , the Drakes look forward to a bright future.

Blackduck 's only senior was shortstop and leadoff hitter , Kayleigh Lory .

Shogren and the Drakes are hopeful that this season ’s success was not just a one -off.

A good number of players will continue to hone their skills over the summer while participating in Legion softball.
