TTAS tournaments begin Monday in Mildred, Blooming Grove

Corsicana — The Texas Teenage Softball District Tournaments get under way in Mildred and Blooming Grove and other locales around the state beginning on Monday, the Fourth of July.

The Mildred Eagles Coach Pitch 8-and-under team coached by Bryan Mitchell comes into the tournament on a five-game winning streak. The Eagles play at 1 p.m. Monday.

“We have a good chance,” Mitchell said. “Finishing strong like that it gives us a chance to continue that in the playoffs.”

The Mildred Thunder of the Freshman division, coached by Chad Kirk, take a 12-0 record into Monday’s 11 a.m. game so they have a ton of confidence.

“We feel pretty good about it,” Kirk said. “We have a tough team from Malakoff and one from Athens. It should be between us three.”
