   Seminole County softball teams wrapped up Regionals Tournaments this week and now the attention turns to State Tournaments.

   In Boys Volleyball, Lake Brantley was swept out of the State Final 4 by local rival Horizon on Thursday, but Lake Howell kept Seminole County’s hopes alive on Friday, getting past Archbishop McCarthy, 3-1 (25-19, 21-25, 25-20 and 27-25) and will be playing in the Class 2A State Championship Match at the FHSAA State Championships at the Winter Haven Health Center at Polk State College today (Saturday).

   A trio of Baseball teams _ Hagerty, Orangewood Christian and Winter Springs _ all earned trips to the State Final 4 in Ft. Myers.

   Orangewood Christian held on to win its State Semifinal on Thursday and will play for the Class 1A State Championship today (Saturday), while the Huskies dropped a rough, 9-8, walkoff loss to powerful Stoneman Douglas its Friday Semifinal. The Bears will not play until Monday.

  Softball will also be sending three teams to the State Tournament at Boombah-Soldier’s Creek Park in Longwood as The Geneva School, Hagerty and Winter Springs all won Regional Championship Games on Thursday.
