Wyoming High School softball teams are in Week 5. The 2026 season will be impacted by the weather for the third time this season. Games on Friday and Saturday at three sites are postponed to later in the season. A few other times have changed to try to beat the weather. This is rivalry week, as teams in Sweetwater County square off, plus Wheatland and Torrington, the Capital City rivalry between East and Central, the Casper schools, and the Gillette schools.
