Ellsworth comes in with a 6 game winning streak, with their lone loss to-date coming at the hands of Old Town in the 2nd game of the season.
MDI sits at 4-5, in 16th place in the Class B North Heal Points. The Trojans are just out of playoff contention, as the top 14 teams make the playoffs. Senior Lyndsey McEachern threw a no-hitter against Washington Academy on Saturday, May 11th. A win over Ellsworth would vault MDI into playoff contention, up into 12th place with 6 games remaining after Monday's games.
