The Lady Farmers will make their return to the softball playoffs later this week.

The last time the program made it was during the 2012 season in Class 4A.

“It feels wonderful to have made playoffs this year. The girls have put in a tremendous amount of hard work and dedication to the program and it has paid off,” Farmersville head coach Paula Wilfong said.

This time Farmersville (13-8 overall as of Monday, April 23) opens against Pottsboro in the 3A Region II bi-district round.
