The Northfield Little League (11-12-year-old) Softball team will begin its hunt for a state championship on Friday, July 12, 6 p.m., against Little Ferry at the Holbrook Little League fields, off Bartley Rd., in Jackson.
The state tournament is a four-team double-elimination tournament that runs from July 12-16 in Jackson, with the winner (the New Jersey champion) going on to the Eastern Region Tournament Aug. 1-11 in Bristol, Conn.
Northfield captured the District 16 title and then swept the Section 4 championship earlier this week in Cherry Hill, outscoring opponents 35-5 in four games. Little Ferry is the Section 2 champion.
