The Thunderhawks are quietly putting together another strong season and after defeating Middletown Friday. They have now won eight straight games and improved their record to 14-3 overall and 10-2 within the Greater Miami Conference.

Normally, that record would put a team in prime position to win a GMC title. However, this season, Lakota East still trails Mason (16-0, 11-0). Earlier this month, Mason handed East two of its three losses, by the scores of 5-2 April 8 and 8-1 April 10.

If the Firebirds can win out, they will be in prime position to repeat as GMC regular season champions with seven games remaining.

Lakota East lost to Oak Hills, by the score of 1-0 Friday. It was the second time this spring that East lost to the Highlanders in a 1-0 game. After Monday’s game at West, East will play at Middletown (3-15, 1-9) Tuesday, at Princeton (7-12, 1-10) Wednesday, at Hamilton (3-14, 2-9) Thursday and will host Colerain (11-6, 7-5) Friday.
