๐ CHARLTON POST 391 ARE YOUR 2026 MASSACHUSETTS AMERICAN LEGION FASTPITCH SOFTBALL CHAMPIONS! ๐ฅ
What an incredible way to close out the 2026 season!
Over two nights at Ruel Fields in Oxford, eight teams battled through seven playoff games filled with walk-off wins, upsets, dominant pitching, big innings, and unforgettable moments.
Championship Wednesday opened with two semifinal matchups. Charlton Post 391 defeated top-seeded Sturbridge Post 109, 3-1, while Webster-Dudley Post 184 advanced with a 17-5 win over Cherry Valley Post 443.
That set the stage for the title game.
๐ Charlton Post 391 capped off an incredible tournament run with a 9-0 victory over Webster-Dudley Post 184 to capture the 2026 Massachusetts American Legion Fastpitch Softball Championship. Caraline Lambert was outstanding again in the circle, and Charlton broke the game open with a six-run sixth inning.
Congratulations to Charlton Post 391 on an outstanding championship run and to Webster-Dudley Post 184 on an incredible season and runner-up finish.
