Norsemen Wrap Up Regular Season with Series Win, Secure #2 Seed in Region II Tournament
The Norsemen entered the weekend series against Rose State with a clear mission: win all three games and tie Seminole for the top seed in the Region II Tournament. The team delivered three strong performances and came away with a series victory. However, they narrowly missed the sweep, falling just short of the top seed.
With the series win, the Norsemen officially lock in the #2 seed and will face Eastern in the opening round of the Region II Tournament on Thursday at 3:30 PM. A Region II Championship will advance them to the South Central District, hosted by the Region 16 champion.
