At last week’s OSSAA State fastpitch softball tournament for classes 2A-B held at the FireLake Ball Fields, everything ran smoothly. Spectators may not have noticed a heavy police presence, and according to CPN Police Department Chief Kyle Webb, that means officers did their job well.

"The best police officer is like a good umpire," Webb said. "When they do their job, nobody really knows. That's the best way I can kind of explain it. When things are going right, that's a good thing."

Starting today, FireLake hosts the large school OSSAA State Fastpitch Softball Tournament for Classes 6A-3A. Chief Webb noted that while operations will remain consistent, visitors will see bicycle officers active on the grounds.

"Because like this weekend, we've got state... where I'm going to have our bike patrol out there," Webb said. "Any time they'll have softball tournaments and stuff like that, we'll have a bike patrol out there."

He added that softball crowds are generally a pleasure to work with, noting that security issues at these games are usually minor and easy to resolve.

"Softball tournaments — and I coached softball for a long time—it's usually not that bad," Chief Webb said. "It's usually good people like that... It's usually simple stuff, like an argument over a call or something like that, where we just like to have a presence."

The CPN Police Department manages security for several major gatherings throughout the year, including Family Reunion Festival, FireLake Fireflight Balloon Fest, and large-scale entertainment at the Grand Casino Hotel & Resort. Webb noted that two additional officers will soon complete bicycle patrol training to further expand coverage for future events.

Looking ahead, the department is preparing for even larger national draws — including hosting the OKC Spark professional fastpitch team.

"With the OKC Spark and everybody like that coming in, that's even a bigger deal because you got ESPN," Webb explained. "So, we'll always have an officer posted, probably especially when the squad's playing, just because it's a professional team. We'll have a lot of officers on it."

Webb noted that for higher-profile events, security protocols will reflect the larger stage. While he advocates for measures like a clear bag policy — like standard policies at major venue entry points — implementation for high school events remains up to sanctioning organizations. Regardless, CPN PD remains dedicated to maintaining a safe, family-friendly environment for every player and fan stepping onto the complex.

And that’s a wrap for this week at the FireLake Ball Fields. Classes 2A-B has crowned its 2026 FastPitch State Champions.

Dale's Kinley Patten wrapped up her high school career on Saturday afternoon at FireLake Ball Fields winning an astounding 5 state titles during her illustrious career. The catcher has won three fastpitch titles and two in slowpitch softball, but this final championship is the one she cherishes most.

The Dale Lady Pirates defeated the Warner Lady Eagles on Saturday, 4-2, in eight innings to win the Class 2A state fastpitch softball championship.

"This one's really special to me just because (it's my) last time catching for Coach (Andy) Powell," Patten said. "He's been big for me, he's been a great coach to me, my best friend. So, it really is hard, it's probably the most difficult one to wrap my head around just leaving."

The standout, who is taking her talents to Rogers State next year, made more athletic memories than a typical high school athlete, but the relationships she built along the way mean the most.

"I've met some of my best friends and my future bridesmaids here," Patten said. "We're not just a team, we're family overall. To be able to play with them and win with them and be just as successful as I am with them, it truly does mean a lot."

In other action, Arapaho-Butler won the Class A state title with a 4-0 win over Okarche, while Red Oak defeated Caney 10-0 in Class B.
