What a season! These competitors left it on the field every game, finishing with a record of 24-5. Second smallest school in B (by 1 girl) to finishing top 6 in state! We are so proud! The memories will last a lifetime! Thank you seniors for your leadership, you will be missed!

🥎 NSAA STATE SOFTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS 🏆
Monday, October 19 | Bowlin Stadium – Lincoln

Three classes. Six teams. Three state championships on the line!

After a week of weather delays, extra innings, and incredible performances, it's time to crown
Nebraska's 2026 State Softball Champions!

🏆 CLASS A – 7:00 PM

#3 Elkhorn South Storm
#1 Millard North Mustangs

Championship History:
Millard North is looking to capture its first softball state championship since 1993, while Elkhorn South hopes to a Class A title to its program's history.

Elkhorn South survived a thrilling 6-5, eight-inning victory over Omaha Westview to open state tournament play. The Storm rallied for three runs in the seventh inning before winning in the eighth.

Can the Mustangs end their championship drought, or will the Storm bring another title home?

🏆 CLASS B – 3:30 PM

#3 Gretna Dragons
#1 Gretna East Griffins

Championship History:
Gretna captured the 2024 Class A state championship with a perfect 38-0 record, defeating Millard North 8-0 in six innings. The Dragons now have an opportunity to add another Class B championship to their resume after winning it in 2015.

Gretna East looks to establish its own championship legacy as the Griffins face their cross-town rivals on the biggest stage.

The teams split their two regular-season meetings.

🔥 Same community. Two rivals. One state championship.

🏆 CLASS C – 12:00 PM

#3 Bishop Neumann Cavaliers
#1 Kearney Catholic Stars

Championship History:
Bishop Neumann has a proud softball tradition, including state championships in 2017 and 2021.

Kearney Catholic returns to the championship stage for the first time since 2020, when the Stars finished as state runner-up. They're looking to capture the program's first softball state championship!

🔥 Will the Cavaliers add another trophy to their collection, or will the Stars make school history?

🏆 CHAMPIONSHIP MONDAY!
Six teams. Three championship games. One unforgettable day of Nebraska softball!
