The Westview Lady Chargers are the Class 2A state champions in softball, capturing Weakley County’s first state title in the sport.
Westview defeated Forrest 13-5 in the state championship game Friday afternoon.
The game was highlighted by two grand slams from sophomore McCall Sims, who set a TSSAA record by becoming the first player to hit two grand slams in a state tournament softball game.
The first came in the top of the fourth inning, after Jillian Brigance was hit by a pitch, Sarah Byars doubled, and Lakyn Rogers reached on an error to load the bases for Sims with Westview leading 4-2.
