The 2016 season came to an end in Flushing in District play Saturday.  The Dragons offense just couldn't get the timely hits when they had scoring opportunities early in the game, which proved to be the difference.  

Senior pitcher Madisen Henry's career came to

In a game that they were expected to win, the Dragons did just that.  They were the home team and ended the game with no outs in the bottom of the 5th inning by the run rule on a walk off hit by Ella Sinclair.  Next up for the Dragons will be Kearsley at 11:30am Saturday at Flushing

On the final regular season games of the season, the Dragons split with Lapeer. They finished 18-20 during the regular season and in 3rd place in the Metro league at 8-6.  Next up for the Dragons, they'll head to Flushing for a pre-district game vs. Carman-Ainsworth.  From this point
