      The 2019 State Softball Finals came to a thrilling and loud conclusion at the University of Maryland Softball Stadium on the College Park on Saturday night putting an exclamation point on the official end of the spring postseason.  Three teams successfully defended last year's titles and one new champion returned to the winner's circle.  Select the desired links below for the complete brackets for each classification and a summary of State Final and Semifinal results.

     Saturday's play begin with the Class 2A title tilt as La Plata defended their 2018 title over Queen Anne's by a score of 9-0 for their third state championship.  In the Class 1A game, Bohemia Manor won their third consecutive state crown and sixth overall by defeating Sparrows Point, 8-0.  The hard fought Class 3A battle was won by Huntingtown, who defended last year's crown by a score of  2-0 over Chesapeake-AA for their fifth title overall.  In the final game of the spring season across the state, Glen Burnie and Sherwood went back and forth in a war of wills before Sherwood prevailed, 8-7 for the Class 4A championship, their sixth state title.  Another 4A school, Walt Whitman, was awarded the Eugene G. Robertson Tournament Sportsmanship Award prior to the awards ceremony at the final game. This was Whitman's first ever tournament appearance in softball, so congratulations on making a great first impression!
