2026 Edmonson County 8U All-Stars.

Edmonson Voice Sports:
​The 2026 Edmonson County 8U All-Star softball team closed its season Tuesday, July 15, with two victories in a round-robin at Caneyville, defeating Ohio County 9-7 and Grayson County 14-0. The wins extended their winning streak to 12 games and finished the summer with a 13-4-1 record.


The All-Stars opened their season on June 13 in Glasgow after just two team practices. Despite the limited preparation, they earned Silver Bracket Runner-Up honors while facing several talented travel teams, including the 8U SOKY Lady Soldiers who recently won the USSSA Gulf Coast National Championship. This early tough competition set the girls up for a successful run.


On July 4, Edmonson County hosted its own All-Star tournament at the Edmonson County High School softball field. Teams from Edmonson, Metcalfe, Breckinridge, and Grayson counties competed, with EC finishing a perfect 4-0 to win the championship. The tournament was well attended and a great success for the program and community.


The team was also scheduled to compete in the Kentucky All-Star Classic in Edmonton on Saturday, July 11, but the tournament was canceled because of weather.


In addition to tournament play, Edmonson County traveled to Ohio County, Grayson County, and Allen County for weekday games throughout the summer.

"It was amazing to see how well they listened, learned, and continued to improve every time they stepped on the field. This group helped put Edmonson County on the map in South Central Kentucky with the way they competed all summer. But more importantly, they are all simply great kids who were a lot of fun to coach and be around. They were outstanding teammates, respectful competitors, and represented Edmonson County the right way every time they took the field. The future of Lady Cat softball is very bright, and we can't wait to see what these girls accomplish in the years ahead."
