Cloquet is gearing up for a big weekend of softball action. Braun Park will be the host site of the ASA-Minnesota State U-14 Girls Fastpitch Tournament starting Friday night.
There will be 27 teams competing in the Rec I level of play with teams coming in from all across the state. Area teams include
A number of local teams have qualified including two teams from Cloquet: Cloquet Re-Max and Cloquet Fond du Lac.
The Braun Park Complex is no stranger to state tournaments and has hosted them in the past few years. With six playing fields available, it is a perfect site for a state tournament.
An entry fee will be charged at the gate and patrons will find a concession stand with water, soft drinks, hot dogs, candy and burgers available throughout the three days provided by B&B Market of Cloquet.
Those planning to attend the event will find some shaded areas, but they are also asking spectators to bring umbrellas to help against the hot weather we’ve had in the area for the past three weeks.
The tournament is being hosted by the Cloquet Area Youth Baseball/Softball Association.
