To cut to the chase, the Horseshoe Bend softball team is winning — and doing so dominantly.

Currently, the Generals are on a nine-game win streak, which is already impressive enough. However, it goes up a degree when you realize they’ve outscored their opponents 95-to-10 through that stretch. All of that has culminated in the Generals debuting as the No. 10 team in Class 2A in the most recent Alabama Sports Writers Association softball rankings.
