Girls basketball
Class 5A region semifinal at Lakeland’s RP Funding Center
Clearwater (24-4) vs. Plantation American Heritage (23-2), 4
The Tornadoes, who are playing in the state semifinals for the first time since 2007, face a tough challenge. The Patriots are ranked No. 1 in 5A, No. 5 overall in the state and No. 14 nationally by MaxPreps.
Softball
Sickles (3-0) at East Lake (3-0), 7
The host Eagles are averaging eight runs per game, but keeping up with that production will be difficult against Gryphons’ ace Robyn Herron, who has yet to allow a run and has racked up a combined 31 strikeouts in two starts.
