The Toppers softball team played a double hitter in Espanola this past Saturday.
Espanola and Los Alamos are neck-n-neck in the District standings and a sweep of these games would put Los Alamos in the drivers seat for the District title. Los Alamos came out swinging in the first game and managed to win 5-4 in 8 innings.
However in the second game, the wheels seemed to came off and the Toppers dropped the game 11-1 in 5 in 5 innings.
So, the two teams are still in the same position in the District standings. The next meeting of these two teams will take place April 26 in Los Alamos and that game may well decide the District title.
