Disappointing season if based on wins and losses

Strong softball program in Hayden
4/29/2006
Earlier in the season, Dobson lost a scheduled game against Paradise Valley. As the season came to a close, two teams were considered to fill the vacant game spot. Horizon could not make the game because of playoff conflicts and Hayden stepped to fill the spot.
Hayden is rich in championship titles and proved themselves to be a tough opponent. Dobson was leading going into the 6th inning but a Hayden took the lead 6 to 5. In the top of the 7th inning, Dobson scored 3 runs and held off the Lobos to win 8 to 7.
After the game, the host Hayden Lobos treated Dobson to a wonderful lunch.
