Lady Aces Stay Unbeaten By Holding Off #1 Casey, 6-5
In perhaps the biggest regular season game in Lady Aces softball history, Mt. Carmel held off previously undefeated Casey-Westfield, 6-5. The Little Illini Conference showdown featured the two best teams as Casey came in at 24-0 and ranked #1 in Class 1A. Meanwhile, the Lady Aces sported a spotless 13-0 record and ranked 6th in Class 2A.
