NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — It was a somber holiday for a youth softball league in Nolensville after they lost their equipment in a fire Thursday morning. Now the team is doing all they can to restore what was lost.
The fire is currently being investigated to rule out any foul play, but the Nolensville Youth Softball organizers said they are a growing program, and it was a heartbreaking loss.
We talk about what the team is doing now to rebuild in the player above.
Fire crews made their way to the fields at around 2:30 a.m. to find heavy smoke and flames coming from the shed. The shed houses all of the league's equipment. Fire crews said it was a total loss.
Officials are asking anyone who has information or camera footage of the Nolensville ballpark throughout the night of July 3 to contact the Fire Marshals office.
Journalism is at its best when we can shine a light on an issue that needs more attention. Once again, Hannah McDonald does this beautifully by highlighting the hardships of teens aging out of the foster care system. I learned something new in her reporting and am inspired by the work I AM NEXT is doing to make a difference. I think you will be too!
