Six Tigers named to All-SEK softball team

Six members of Fort Scott High School's softball team were named to the All-Southeast Kansas League team, which was released earlier this week after Iola concluded its run in the Class 4A State Tournament.

In baseball, only one member of Fort Scott's team received honors as junior Mikey Karleskint was named to the First Team.

The league champion softball team saw four members named to the First Team: Senior pitcher Erica Davis, senior second baseman Elise Nation, junior catcher Erin Coffman and sophomore outfielder Jade Weeter.

On the Second Team are senior first baseman Jamie Collins and senior shortstop Amanda Bowles.

Fort Scott had the most players honored followed by Iola with five and Independence and Columbus with four each.

League champion Independence saw six members named in baseball, four of them to the First Team. Pittsburg was next with five, three on the First Team.
