Community Sendoff Scheduled For State-Bound Ladycat Softball

HALLSVILLE, Texas — The Hallsville community is invited to join a special State Sendoff this Wednesday, May 28, in celebration of the Hallsville Ladycat Softball Team’s trip to the UIL State Tournament in Austin.

The Ladycats will face Lake Creek for the Class 5A State Championship on Friday, May 30, at 4:00 p.m. at Red & Charline McCombs Field on the campus of the University of Texas. 

For the sendoff, supporters are encouraged to line Bobcat Drive between Bobcat Stadium and Hallsville Junior High to cheer on the team as they depart for state competition. Community members should begin arriving at 1 p.m., using the home football parking lot. The team will leave campus at 1:30 p.m., and organizers hope to create a loud and spirited sendoff to show the Ladycats how proud Hallsville is of their achievement.
