Toughness is the theme today as Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette sports reporters recap the spring state championship games and Booneville’s Lexi Franklin pitching with 6 stitches over her right eye after getting hit prior to the Lady Bearcats’ 3A state championship softball game.

Franklin, with her eye bandaged, earned MVP honors in leading her team to the title. Gravette softball, Har-Ber baseball, and soccer champs at Harrison, Green Forest and Bentonville are all recognized on today’s episode of the last Prep Rally Podcast of the school year.
