The Class B Area 5 Seniors Legion Baseball Tournament is set to take place in O'Neill from July 24 through July 28, bringing together seven senior teams for a week of competition on the diamond at Fred Appleby Field.
Games will be scheduled in three daily slots — 1:00 p.m., 4:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. — across Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with additional contests slated for Monday and the championship game on Tuesday.
The O'Neill Seniors open the tournament against Broken Bow on Friday night at 7:00 p.m., and all of their subsequent games are slated for the 7:00 p.m. slot.
Community Support and Venue Improvements
The event showcases a strong field, including three squads that advanced to the NSAA state baseball tournament earlier this spring, adding extra intrigue for fans.
Beyond the on‑field action, the community can look forward to enjoying recent upgrades to the venue, including a new scoreboard and an awning over the bleachers that enhance the spectator experience.
Local organizers are urging residents to turn out in force, cheering on the O'Neill squad while taking advantage of the freshly improved facilities.
