The Webb City Senior Little League softball team has earned a trip to the Central Region tournament in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, after staging a remarkable comeback to defeat the two-time defending state champions, DeSoto, in a hard-fought series.

Facing a deficit from the outset, Webb City found themselves in a precarious position after dropping the opening game of the best-of-three series to DeSoto, 16-13, on Saturday at King Jack Park. The team's path to the state title was far from smooth, requiring a significant turnaround to stay in contention.

However, Webb City refused to concede, rallying to even the series with a victory in the second game. The decisive Game 3 saw them complete the comeback, clinching the state championship and securing their spot in the upcoming regional competition.
