Pitt County Girls Softball Team Set to Defend Title at Little League Softball World Series

GREENVILLE, NC – The excitement is building as the Pitt County Girls Softball Team gears up to defend their championship title at the upcoming Little League Softball World Series, kicking off this Sunday at Elm Street Park. Representing North Carolina, these talented young athletes will go head-to-head with teams from across the globe in one of the biggest youth softball events of the year.


🏆 Defending Champs Ready for the Challenge

With only two returning players from last year’s title-winning squad, this year’s team is a fresh mix of determination, talent, and ambition. Despite being newcomers to the tournament spotlight, the players are confident and enthusiastic.

“I’m excited to be able to play with my team in this tournament—it’s a big deal and hopefully we can bring home the win,” shared Lily Nichols, one of the new team members.

“I’m feeling a little nervous, but really excited—I think we’ll do well,” added teammate Emily Mills.

“I’m very, very nervous, but also really excited,” said Makayla Montgomery, echoing the team’s hopeful mindset.

Head Coach Gerren Brown expressed pride in the team’s preparation and the excitement surrounding their journey.

“The girls, they’re rockstars, they’re like celebrities… It’s just a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We’re thrilled,” Brown said.

The team has been training intensely over the past two months, with a focus on mastering the fundamentals and building team chemistry.

“A lot of ground balls, tee work, just tuning everything in. Pitchers and catchers going through their routines again—just fine-tuning all the little things,” Brown explained.


🎯 The Team to Beat

As defending champions, all eyes are on Pitt County. Coach Brown acknowledged the added pressure, noting that opponents will be gunning for them.

“We definitely have a target on our back. Everyone’s saying we’re the team to beat—but we’ll see,” he said.
