HERRIN, Ill. — The Herrin softball team snapped a five-game losing streak at home, according to a MaxPreps recap.
A losing streak on your own field is its own kind of misery — the same bleachers, the same fans, the same result, week after week. Breaking it, whenever it happens, matters more than the box score suggests. For a program working to turn its season around, the win is a foothold.
Further details on the game were not included in the available report.
