The Eagle High softball team continues to dominate, raising from No. 6 to No. 4 nationally in the CBS MaxPreps Xcellent 25 ranking, released Wednesday.

The Mustangs are off to a 10-0 start to the season and have outscored their opponents by a combined score of 148-4. The defending 5A state champs have mercy-ruled every opponent but two — Kuna and the Eagle JV, which it faced in the finals of the Sugar Town Softball Tournament last week.
