After waiting a day to begin its postseason softball series, Mississippi high schools Saltillo and Warren Central will get under way Friday.
The best-of-three Mississippi High School Activities Association Class 6A opening-round series starts Friday afternoon at Warren Central’s field in Vicksburg, Miss., which was pushed back a day due to inclement weather. Game 2 is now Saturday afternoon in Saltillo, while an if-necessary Game 3 takes place Monday back at Warren Central.
