It sure didn’t end the way it started, but the season Aurora softball put together was one the program hasn’t seen in some time. 

Aurora suffered a pair of losses to Hastings and GICC at the B-8 subdistrict tournament in Hastings Monday, ending its season with a 14-13 record. The winning mark at the end of the year is a first for the Lady Huskies in nearly a decade, recording back-to-back .500 seasons in 2012 and 2011. 

It was a tough postseason draw for Aurora, participating in a subdistrict with three of the top five in Class B wild card points (Hastings, Northwest and GICC).

Aurora began the B-8 subdistrict tournament with a 14-2 loss to top-seeded Hastings before being eliminated by GICC, 10-0.
