Arcanum Girls Softball wins 2026 OHSAA DV District Championship and moves onto Regional Semi-finals.

It’s been a trying two weeks of postseason softball. The kind of rain normally reserved for April spilled into May, delaying and postponing games, forcing teams to stop, start, and then turn around and play again the very next day.

Despite the weather on Friday, both Arcanum (D5) and Tri-Village (D6) forged ahead in their district final games—and both came away with convincing wins to claim District Championships.

Arcanum Dominates Williamsburg for District Title

Arcanum advanced to the district title game by beating Dixie 10–0 and then Anna 4–2. Their game with Williamsburg was originally scheduled for 5 p.m. at Valley View High School but was moved up to a noon start in an attempt to beat the heavier rain.

The Trojans weren’t fazed by the conditions. They came out swinging, and while the Wildcats had to battle the rain, they also had to endure a steady stream of Arcanum runs.

Cam Garbig provided the early lightning in the first inning with a three-run homer to get things going.

Arcanum then exploded for 11 runs in the second inning. Claire Hein laid down a sacrifice bunt to plate a run, Jordan Garbig doubled to drive in two, Rees Hoffman singled home two, Ella Flatter doubled to clear the bases for four more, and Hein added an RBI single. Before Williamsburg knew what hit them, the Trojans led 14–0.

Arcanum added seven more runs on five hits in the top of the fourth. Matty Noe singled to drive in one, Grace Fry singled home two, Hoffman added another RBI single, and Meredith Laux doubled to bring in three as Arcanum went on to run-rule the Wildcats, 21–0.

Williamsburg never mounted a serious threat. Arcanum overwhelmed them with 17 hits at the plate for 21 runs, and Garbig threw a four-inning shutout, allowing just four hits with no runs and three strikeouts.

Hoffman led the way, going 3-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored. Six other Trojans collected two hits apiece: Hein, Jordyn Garbig, Fry, Laux, Flatter, and Emily Fox.

Arcanum, now 21–9 on the season, claims its first district championship since 2022 and advances to the regional semifinals. The Trojans will face the winner of Piketon vs. Frankfort Adena on Wednesday, May 27 at 2 p.m. at Indian Hill High School.

Tri-Village Rolls to Third Straight District Championship

Tri-Village traveled to Anna to take on Houston in the DVI District final. The Patriots advanced with a 26–2 win over Franklin Monroe, a 15–1 win over West Liberty-Salem, and then a 16–1 victory over Houston to secure their third straight District Championship in softball.

In between tournament games against Franklin Monroe and West Liberty-Salem, Tri-Village squeezed in a WOAC make-up contest with Mississinawa Valley. The Patriots defeated the Blackhawks 17–5 to officially lock up the outright league championship, going 11–0 in conference play. It marked their third straight league title.

Tri-Village’s mindset in the rain was all business as they jumped in front of Houston 6–0 in the first inning.

The Patriots got on the board in the bottom of the first when Kash Mead grounded out to second, scoring Emma Greer, who had led off the inning with a hit. Hailey Burk singled and later scored on a passed ball, and Aereonna Baker walked and also came around on a passed ball. That set the stage for Cam Osborne, who homered to right field to score three runs. Miley Bierly became the third Patriot to cross the plate on a passed ball, giving Tri-Village a 6–0 advantage.

The Patriots added another run in the second inning when Greer scored on yet another passed ball to make it 7–0.

Tri-Village then broke the game wide open with a nine-run third inning. Osborne singled to drive in a run, Addy Wright followed with an RBI single, Mead singled home two, Burk added an RBI single, Baker drew a bases-loaded walk to force in a run, and Caley McCarroll capped the outburst with a three-run homer to center for a 16–0 lead.

The Patriots’ offense tallied 11 hits, with Burk, Greer, Osborne, and McCarroll each collecting two. Mead, Osborne, and McCarroll each drove in three runs.

In the circle, Elizabeth Poling got the start and delivered three shutout innings, allowing just two hits and striking out four. McCarroll came on in relief for the final two innings, striking out three while walking four and allowing one run.

Tri-Village, now 21–5, heads into the regional semifinals, where they will face Fayetteville-Perry, which defeated Tri-County North in the district championship game. The Patriots and Rockets are scheduled to play at 2 p.m. at Blue Jacket Softball Diamond at Bellefontaine High School.

With both Arcanum and Tri-Village punching their tickets to regionals—and doing it in dominant fashion despite miserable weather—the WOAC will be well represented in the next round. The Trojans and Patriots are not only piling up wins and trophies, but they’re also showing the kind of toughness and depth that can make them dangerous as the stakes get higher in late May.


Tri-Village Softball wins 3rd straight OHSAA DVI District Championship and moves on to Regional Semi-Finals.
