With travel outside the state prohibited due to COVID considerations, the high school softball teams’ usual Spring Break schedule was wiped out. So, the Bryant Lady Hornets and North Little Rock Lady Charging Wildcats programs got together to sponsor the South Central Showdown at Bishop Park today and Saturday. Sixteen teams will compete in pool play then play in brackets based on their success in each pool on Saturday.
The Lady Hornets will be in Pool D and open play this evening at 4 against Glen Rose. The pool also includes DeQueen and Poyen.
Here are the brackets:
