The Munising tennis team capped off a busy week with a tournament at Negaunee on Saturday. The shorthanded Mustangs were able to take seventh place in the event.

Coming off a pair of disappointing losses two days earlier, the Superior Central softball team was able to bounce back on Thursday, May 16. The Lady Cougars were hosting Newberry in nonleague action and won both in five innings, 11-1 and 13-2.

They were wins over a JV team, but considering how talented the program is at Negaunee, Superior Central softball head coach Rich Swajanen still felt pretty good about their 22-6 and 20-16 victories over the visiting Lady Miners on Monday. “We were happy with those wins, we hit the ball hard,” he said.

Game one was a close one. Game two wasn’t.
