Both the junior and senior Little League softball teams are headed to the state tournament for the first time.
Peabody West fast pitch softball is proving to be a staying power, and it's only the second year of competitive play for the Tanner City kids at the Little League level. First, the Major League All-Stars (11- to 12-year-olds) won their district title, followed by the Junior League doing the same. The majors were defeated in the sectional tournament, first by Woburn and then losing a re-match to East Bridgewater. The junior leaguers took two straight over their sole opponent Wakefield, however, for the sectional title (16-4 and 10-9). Then the senior league team entered the picture.
