The Oklahoma Heat, featuring two Sequoyah County girls, Payton Watts and Dia Jackson, took second in a state 10-and-under softball tournament at Moore this weekend.

The Heat, the tournament’s youngest team, came out of the losers’ bracket to take second in the 16-team tournament. The team is from Oklahoma City.

The Heat is a 9-and-under team that was competing against players a year older.

After an experiment that lasted several months, the editors at Your TIMES decided this week to end the practice of allowing anonymous comments on our website because most of the comments involve personal attacks and unfounded accusations. These comments do not add information to a story, or add any true insight. While we believe in the free exchange of ideas, it had become evident that was not what was happening in the comment section of our website. Readers can also become fans of Your TIMES on Facebook and may comment on our postings there. Readers are also encouraged to write letters to the editor to the newspaper about matters of public interest. The newspaper circulation is several times that of the web site, so readership is much higher. Letters must include a name and phone number so that we may contact the writer to verify authenticity of the letter. Letters are limited to 500 words and one letter per writer per month is accepted.
