All-district softball lists released

After long playoff runs were finally ended from other teams within the districts, all-district lists have been released for all three Montague County softball teams.
Awards are voted on by the other coaches within the same district, with coaches only able to put their athlete up for certain awards, but not vote for them. The higher a team finishes within district play, the better chances more players from that team will garner more awards.
The Bowie Lady Rabbits just missed out on making the playoffs, heading into the final game with a chance to break the program’s playoff drought, dating back to 2019. Alas, it did not happen this season, but the better results meant several players earned some prestigious awards.
Chloe Kinney earned the district’s catcher of the year superlative award.
KP Rutherford also got named the district’s newcomer of the year.
First team selections went to Serenity Klump and Sadie Britt.
Second team selections were Hanna Bell, Rhyan Carle and Victoria Watson.
The Nocona Lady Indians broke their playoff drought that stretched back to 2008, finishing third overall in the district. Their two graduating players were honored with superlative awards.
Skye Kirby was named the district’s utility player of the year. Reagan Phipps was named the district’s defense player of the year.
First team selections were Tinley Cable and Heidi Atteberry. Kaitlyn Tiffner and Evelyn Marquez were named to the second team.
For the Saint Jo Lady Panthers, they won the district title, beating out a modest three-team district that featured Perrin-Whitt and Bryson instead of only playing against 2A teams all regular season.
That led to several players earning superlative awards.
Maxey Johnson was named the district’s most valuable player. Symbri Evans was the district’s defensive MVP.
Tatum Morman was named the district’s co-utility player of the year.
Lily Cook was the co-newcomer of the year.
Reagan Wilson, Kamron Skidmore and Jordyn O’Neal were first team members. Mercedes Diaz and Nevaeh Spann were named to the second team.
