The Port Charlotte High School Pirates junior varsity softball team visited the Charlotte High School Tarpons on April 3 and brought them a gift.
The Tarpons were good hosts and also offered a gift to the Pirates. Both gifts were the same thing: the game. Neither team seemed to want the gift. Ultimately, the Pirates took it, winning 4-3.
