SCHEDULE ALERT — Due to expected rains this week, the Lady Jays regional will be moved up a day and two hours earlier.
The regional in Collinsville will now begin on Wednesday and conclude on Thursday. Guthrie’s first game will be at noon. Times and dates have been edited in the following story.
The Guthrie softball team is three wins away from a state tournament berth for the first time since 1997. If that were to happen, they will need to claim wins over Tulsa area teams on the state’s east side.
