Lakeville South entered the season as the defending Class 3A state champion and the favorite in Section 1, but the Cougars have fallen short of expectations after dropping to 10-7 overall and 5-5 in the South Suburban Conference with a loss to Eastview on May 6.

Lakeville South hasn't cracked the top 10 in the Minnesota High School Fastpitch Softball Coaches Association's Class 3A rankings all season, but the No. 16 Cougars can stir up the league by beating No. 18-3A Shakopee and No. 12-3A Rosemount in its final two games.

Rosemount fell out of the Class 3A top-10 rankings after a 2-0 loss to conference leader Shakopee on May 4. The Irish (11-6, 8-2) bounced back with a 3-0 victory over No. 21-3A Farmington, keeping them in second place in the standings and hot on the trail of the Sabers with only games against Lakeville North and Lakeville South -- in our Top Game of the Week -- left to play on the regular-season slate.
