Willcox won the 8-10 state softball championship last year and the team came back through the elimination bracket this year to win the state Little League championship behind a no-hitter by Hattie Macumber in the deciding game, a 3-1 victory over Goodyear on Wednesday. Willcox beat Goodyear twice Wednesday night in Verde Valley to secure a spot at the West Regional starting July 22 in San Bernardino. Willcox drew a bye in the first round and will take on the winner of Nevada and Utah on July 23 on ESPN+.

Macumber pitched a one-hitter with 10 strikeouts and one walk in the first game, and had eight strikeouts with a walk in the deciding game.
