Bridgeport varsity baseball team is ready for action

BRIDGEPORT – With a foot-and-a-half of snow on their playing fields during the week that ushers in the first day of spring, the Bridgeport varsity baseball and softball teams will be looking well into April before conditions allow either team to host game opponents.

With Central Washington 2B League rival not fielding a baseball team this season the Mustangs will have two slots to fill to replace the missing Eagles. The Fillies with returning head coach Samantha Torres once again at the helm will face their regular roster of rivals including Brewster, Liberty Bell, Lake Roosevelt, Waterville-Mansfield, Oroville, Manson, Tonasket, and Soap Lake.

Jesse Macy is returning for another year as the Mustangs’ head coach and, if the schedule allows, has a series of doubleheaders planned against Tonasket, Manson, Liberty Bell, and Lake Roosevelt.

Neither the Mustangs nor the Fillies made it into post-season play last year so one obvious goal will be to place high enough in CWB-2B play to make it into the post-season competition this year.
