It wasn’t about softball anymore on Saturday.
Which team moved on to the regional quarterfinals didn’t mean as much anymore heading into the final games of Cinco Ranch’s UIL Region III-5A area round series against MacArthur.
It was just the night before that players, coaches and fans from both sides were shocked at the death of Ricky Scearce, the umpire who was officiating Game 1 between the two squads.
I am very sure that playing the game was emotionally difficult for everyone. Again, my condolences go out to the Scearce family.
