Five parish teams are set to open the LHSAA playoffs Thursday.
Parkway and Haughton will be at home in non-select Division I first-round games.
One first-round game is scheduled for Wednesday. Bossier (10-12), the No. 24 seed, visits No. 9 Iota (17-6) at 6, according to the LHSAA website.
The No. 11 seed Lady Panthers (19-7) host No. 22 Fontainebleau (15-13) and the No. 13 Lady Bucs (23-9) host No. 20 Sam Houston (16-11). Both games tip off at 6 p.m.
Parkway was the runner-up in Division I last year and Haughton reached the semifinals.
In other non-select Division I games, No. 24 Airline (13-12) visits No. 9 Natchitoches Central (19-8) at 6 and No. 27 Benton (17-16) visits No. 6 Salmen (23-3) at 5:30.
Airline and Natchitoches Central are facing off for the second time in less than a week. The Lady Chiefs defeated the Lady Vikings 62-51 last Friday in the teams’ regular-season-finale.
In a non-select Division IV first-round game, No. 19 Plain Dealing (15-14) is making the 415-mile trip to the tip of the Louisiana boot to play No. 14 South Plaquemines (10-9).
Last spring, the Plain Dealing softball team made the same trip in the first round of the playoffs and came away with a victory.
