Glacier hosts Crosstown softball Thursday

The first of two Crosstown softball games is Thursday, weather permitting, with a 5 p.m. start on Glacier High School’s diamond. 

The host Wolfpack would be the favorite on paper, and haven’t lost a game to Flathead since 2016, but that’s why they play these things. Last year’s battles went Glacier’s way both times, 9-2 and 7-0. 

The Pack were cruising along at 5-0 before suffering back-to-back league losses. Then they scuffled until about midway through a game with winless Hellgate before exploding for 11 runs over the fourth and fifth innings.
