Launch Academy athletes are preparing for the upcoming softball season in El Dorado, benefiting from regional developments in the sport. Nearby, El Dorado High School extended its home winning streak to five with a commanding 12‑2 victory over Franklin, led by a strong pitching performance and explosive offensive output ([maxpreps.com](https://www.maxpreps.com/news/YqJopVXuWUmEkHs3cc5ADg/softball-recap-el-dorado-extends-home-winning-streak-to-five.htm?utm_source=openai)).
