WHS Baseball and Softball Squads Begin Tournament Play

The Division II state tournament schedules are out for baseball and softball, and Windham High School is hoping that its squads can make deep runs starting this week.

On Tuesday, the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association announced the schedule for all state tournament games.

Windham Baseball has had an up-and-down season, but has performed well enough to host a first round game.

The no. 6 seed Jaguars will face off against the no. 11 seed Plymouth Regional High School, which finished 8-8 on the year.

The game will take place at 4 p.m. on Thursday.

The Windham boys finished the regular season 11-6. The team won its only meeting against PRHS by a score of 5-4 on April 26.

The lady Jaguars softball team also enters the Division II state tournament as a no. 6 seed.

That seed means that the Windham girls will also host a no. 11 seed opponent today, facing off against John Stark Regional High School.

The 11-5 Jaguars never played JSRHS during the regular season.

The Weare-based squad finished 9-7 on the year.

All second round tournament games for Division II baseball and softball will be held at the home of the higher seed on June 1 at 4 p.m.

Softball semifinals and finals are held at Southern New Hampshire University in Manchester. Baseball semifinals are also hosted at SNHU, while the finals are held at Northeast Delta Dental Stadium, also in Manchester.
