OHSAA Softball State Tournament Pairings and Live Coverage

SOFTBALL STATE TOURNAMENT AT FIRESTONE STADIUM

Next year, Firestone Stadium will turn 100 years old. The brick stadium has hosted the OHSAA softball state tournament since 2008. Last year the City of Akron purchased and installed a new surface of artificial field turf that covers the entire playing field.

Tickets for all state tournament games are available at www.OHSAA.org/tickets.

All 12 games from the softball state tournament will be broadcast live on the NFHS Network (subscription) and the OHSAA Radio Network. David Wilson, Ryan Baker, Bill Morgan, Tim Alcorn, Karen Linder, Jeff Kurtz and Melissa Basil will have the call.
