9:05 – Still got a couple of games left with Caney Valley up 5-0 on Chandler and Piedmont and Sequoyah-Claremore just starting. Yes, a 5:45 p.m. game that is JUST starting.
It’s been a fun and eventful day. Defending champions Ringling and Washington were knocked out, both are in 2A this year.
No. 1-ranked Catoosa lost in 4A while No. 2 Tuttle was taken the distance against Fort Gibson.
I walked by FG pitcher Taylor Mills, who couldn’t stop crying. She pitched one heckuva game. I hope she appreciates it. It hurts now, but that was something special in her battle with Tuttle’s Caitlin Sill. Mills had 16 Ks while Sill had 13.
