May 26, 2015, was not a day to rejoice in Burroughs or Burbank sports history. However, the season as a whole was one to celebrate for everyone.
In a matter of 10 minutes of each game being played, all three local teams suffered excruciating defeats in the second round of the CIF Playoffs. One-run losses doomed the Indians and Bulldogs as their seasons came to a screeching halt.
We applaud each team for a fantastic season!!!
