Since high school softball returned in Arizona in 2021, Willow Canyon has not faced many difficulties on the field.
Thursday night, prep softball fans learned the Wildcats also handle adversity very well.
After six attempts and one tie in the past three years, rival and #3 seed Canyon View finally broke through with a 4-2 win Thursday night at Papago Park. It was the first loss this year for Willow Canyon - ranked #13 nationally by MaxPreps -and the first loss for senior pitcher Marissa McCann sine April 2021.
