Black Sox teams being Legion season this week

Over 50 players ages 14 to 19 will begin the American Legion baseball season on one of three Bryant Black Sox teams this week. The Sox’ Junior and AA teams are set to open the summer schedule tonight at Bryant High School Field with games against their respective counterparts from Magnet Cove.

The Senior Sox, primarily made up of players from the Class 7A State champion Bryant High School team, are scheduled to begin play on Tuesday at home against Sheridan.

Bryant’s Senior and AA Legion teams each claimed State championships last summer while the Junior Sox reached the finals of the State tourney. The Senior Sox went on to reached the final four of the MidSouth Regional Tournament before losing to the eventual World Series finalist Retif Oil of New Orleans.

Here are the schedules for each of the three teams:
