The service in this gym keeps kicking me off of the livestream, my apologies to anyone watching… but I was able to grab this buzzer beater by @NatalieAlesia and the end of the half!

This one's for the girls, and for Mike!!!
The Barrington Fillies are excited to share their IHSA Supersectional victory with Barrington H.S. Athletic Director Mike Obsuszt! Mike is retiring after 19 years as the Fillies/Broncos athletic leader and a huge supporter of our softball program! We are forever grateful!

The 33-5 Fillies set to make their 11th trip, 10 under coach Perry Peterson, to the state softball finals. They have hit a state record 78 homers, the last from first baseman Ainsley Muno which staked Barrington to 3-0 lead in third inning vs Warren in supersectional.

Tonite at 7 pm, the sluggers from @softballBHS_ trying to get to the Louisville Slugger complex (Peoria). It's the Fillies and Warren Blue Devils trying to make some thunder while aces Sydney Jackson and Allie Goodwin will try to calm the storm! Get ready for another big one!

And let's hope we are not walking to the big game with umbrellas! Let's keep the rain away so we decided this supersectional tonite!
Softball Super-Sectional Parking…….. Hart Road is closed just north of our stadium. With limited parking at the Fields of Dreams we suggest parking in the BHS west lot and walking around the varsity baseball field to access the FOD bridge and game field. #Barringtonathletics
