The Pineville softball team is heading into the state semifinals Friday in Sulphur on a roll after smashing parish rival Tioga Friday night in the state quarterfinals.

The Lady Rebels are the only Rapides Parish team in the LHSAA state tournament.

ASH made a valiant run, with a one-run loss to top-seeded Mount Carmel in a quarterfinal road game.

Plainview also took it down to the wire – and then some — in its state quarterfinal at No. 2 seeded Claiborne Christian, falling by one in extra innings.

Buckeye and Menard were also stopped short of Sulphur with quarterfinal losses on the road.
