North St. Paul at Hill-Murray
4:15 p.m., Monday, May 12
MN Softball Hub Spotlight Game

No. 8-ranked North St. Paul dipped its toes to take on South Suburban powers Lakeville North and Prior Lake back on May 3 and lost both in tight matchups. But since then the Polars have been dominating Classic Suburban Conference play, beating Richfield, South St. Paul and Mahtomedi by a combined score of 55-6. North St. Paul does have a loss to a conference opponent, even though it did not count in the standings. That lone loss was to Hill-Murray, who the Polars take on Monday.

The Pioneers are looking to take the season series from North St. Paul, who have split the two times they have played. Hill-Murray is coming off of a sweep last Wednesday against Mahtomedi and have not played since, so the Pioneers will be well rested.
