Andover’s Lexi Lesperance and her Trojan softball teammates should be celebrating a lifetime memory — one day after shocking five-time state champion Wichita Bishop Carroll. The Trojans were close to playing for a state championship after breaking Carroll’s 77-game winning streak.Lesperance drove in six runs, drilled a two-run homer and pitched the Trojans to a 9-4 victory over Wichita Carroll — the biggest upset in KSHSAA softball history. Their dreams were stolen by misguided rules and thoughtless administrators who allowed rules to trump simple common sense.
