Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Sports Editor Graham Thomas joins the podcast this week.

A plethora of spring sports were the topic today starting with Gunnar Woolard’s big day for the Gravette Lions as they win the 4A-North Regional baseball championship.

In the feats of the week, Gravette sophomore Sydney Kildow was huge for her team in the championship game of the 4A-North regional softball tournament, pitching three hitless and scoreless innings in a 3-0 win against Pea Ridge. And Leland Barclay recaps the state powerlifting meet in Lake Hamilton where Charleston’s Reese Merechka won the 165-pound weight class.
