Last night was a good night for the Madrid Tigers softball team. They welcomed the North Tama Redhawks to the home field to start their 1A-Region 8 journey. It took a bit for the Tigers to break through on the scoreboard but they survived and advanced in a 4-1 decision over the Redhawks to play again tomorrow night.

The first handful of innings saw both teams leave runners in scoring position as it was scoreless for those first few innings. Madrid broke through in the fifth when Rylee Borcherding had a two RBI single to get the Tigers on the board. North Tama got their lone run in off an error in the top of the sixth, but Madrid responded with two more runs in the sixth thanks to hits from Samantha Springer and Tilly Sweet. The Tigers then got the final three outs to advance.

Madrid will head to Newman Catholic tomorrow night. The winner will advance to a Friday night contest against either Collins-Maxwell or Martensdale-St Marys at the highest remaining seed.

The baseball team also finished up their suspended district game in Milo against Southeast Warren last night. The Tigers saw their season end in an 8-0 contest. Madrid graduates just one senior in baseball, Preston Wicker.

Today was the day the family, friends and community came to the Madrid JR/SR High School gym to honor the 131st graduating class from Madrid High School. Enjoy a selection of photos from the graduation ceremony for the Class of 2025. There were some technological issues when going through the photos and they simply glitched out so we do apologize for anyone missing their diploma photo. Also of note, graduation coverage will be in our June 4th edition as we had an early deadline with Memorial Day tomorrow.

Last night was the second biggest meet of the year for track and field, a state qualifying meet. The Madrid Tigers were able to host a 1A meet against 14 others schools and did pretty well against top flight competition.

The Madrid girls were able to capture a district championship by taking first place while the boys took third overall.

Automatic qualifiers:
Paige Richards - 100, 200, 400 meter dash and long jump
Katelyn Brandhorst - 3000 meter run
Boys 4x200 meter relay
Boys 4x800 meter relay

At-large bids will be announced sometime today and the Tigers should see more move on to the state meet which goes down at the blue oval at Drake starting next Thursday morning.

Also, we had hoped to get more photos for this post but the clumsy editor didn't watch where he was walking and tripped over some hurdles.
