- 2:19in last year's regional final, which also was played in Mendota.
- 2:23We have had great success when hosting regionals, Mendoda coach
- 2:27Nick Meyer said. Both of our regional titles have been
- 2:30when we were at home. We get to defend our
- 2:32home field, and our girls seem to play a little
- 2:35better when we are at home and familiar with things.
- 2:38Myers expects a competitive regional. I think it's going to
- 2:42be a fun regional because I think all four teams
- 2:45are somewhat similar inability, Meyers said. Mendota has lost its
- 2:49last three games. The trojans last win was a three
- 2:53zero victory over Serena on April thirtieth. That was Mendota's
- 2:56lone game against a regional opponent. The Central Catholic has
- 3:01played a challenging schedule against larger teams, with twelve of
- 3:04its sixteen games against two A and three OF teams,
- 3:07including a pair of two A number one seeds. Next,

- 3:36The Tigrises are undefeated in home matches this season nine zero.
- 3:40Princeton won four of its last five matches, ending the
- 3:43regular season with a three to two loss to Byron.
- 3:46We are really excited to be hosting the regional this year.
- 3:50We have been really strong at home this season, phs
- 3:53coach David Gray said. We have had an eye on
- 3:55the playoffs all year and now it is time. We
- 3:58need to make sure we play well on Monday versus Maccom.
- 4:01We did not have our best match the last time
- 4:03out versus Byron, so we need to play a better match.
- 4:07Alman awaits in the final. The Pioneers beat Princeton three
- 4:11to one on April sixteenth to give the Tigrises their
- 4:13first loss after a nine to zero start. Alman, which
- 4:17won the Western Big Six Conference, has won four straight
- 4:20regional titles and nine in the last eleven years. Princeton
- 4:24is looking for its first regional title since twenty twenty
- 4:26two and its fourth overall. If we do get through
- 4:30the semi final, then we will need our best effort
