Four county softball teams battle for state title

Four Okmulgee County Little League softball teams will battle other talented teams from across the state this weekend at three different OK Kids State Softball Tournaments.

Two of the county teams will compete at the 12U state tournament in Ada, while the other two teams will compete at the 8U and 10U state tournaments in Clinton and Weatherford, respectively.

The 8U and 10U state softball tournaments will feature two brackets – Blue and Red – with the winner and runner-up of each bracket advancing to Sunday’s Championship Series.
