Harlingen South is back in the third round of the postseason for the second straight year.

This past weekend they beat Flour Bluff in back-and-forth three-game series to advance.

This week they Lady Hawks are going up against Smithson Valley, a team that boasts a 22-1 overall record and an undefeated district season.

"The girls definitely deserve it, we're not worried about who's left, we're just worried about where we're at and what we can do but at the same time it's an honor knowing we get to represent the RGV", said Harlingen South head softball coach Joey Rios. 

"You can't be perfect so I now the terms are going to come in how they feel that day and how we feel that day, so I think it's more of a mental thing. They are 22-1 but like that one team beat them maybe we can be the other one", said Harlingen South senior pitcher Lexi Sandoval.

The series will start at 6:30 p.m. on Friday at Corpus Christi London High School. Game 2 and Game 3 (if necessary) will be played on Saturday at the same location.
