Mount Vernon (32-7) is hosting Center Point-Urbana (18-18) in a Class 3A regional softball final on Tuesday, July 14, 2026, according to The Gazette.

Center Point-Urbana defeated Mount Vernon in the postseason in each of the last two seasons, the same report states.

"We would have been fine playing Clear Lake. But, gosh darn it, we wanted to play (Center Point-Urbana). There aren’t many times you have an opportunity for a second chance," Robin Brand, Mount Vernon softball coach, said.

Robin Brand is the head softball coach at Mount Vernon High School, per the report.
