Tulsa Little League Team Disqualified, Reinstated in Little League World Series

Tulsa National Little League is officially removed from the Southwest Region Tournament after a Texas judge vacated a temporary restraining order. The Little League International Tournament Committee ruled that the team had an ineligible player, leading to their disqualification despite a brief legal battle. Meanwhile, Phenix City has secured a spot in the Little League World Series, marking the first time an Alabama team has headed to Williamsport in 27 years following a dominant performance.
