The Mountain Home High School softball team is set to begin its 2017 campaign. The Lady Bombers will be on the road as they meet Highland.
Mountain Home is coming off a season in which they finished with a record of 16-15. The Lady Bombers ended last year in the quarterfinals of the Class 6A State Tournament with a loss to Sheridan.

The Bomber boys were 13-4-3 a year ago. They also lost in the state quarterfinals at the hands of Greenwood, but not before they finished the regular season as 7A/6A-East conference champions. Mountain Home head coach Bryan Mattox says this year will be another where he has a lot of athletes participating.
