Ozark hosts Missouri vs. Arkansas high school baseball festival

High school baseball takes on a Missouri vs. Arkansas flavor Friday and Saturday in Ozark.

U.S. Baseball Park will be host the inaugural Tyler Phipps Festival April 14-15. This will be a two-day baseball showcase featuring four Missouri high school baseball teams head-to-head with three top Arkansas teams over two days.

Proceeds from the event will go to support a scholarship for an Ozark High School baseball player who will continue playing in college.

The baseball series has been created to celebrate the life of Ozark High School graduate Tyler Phipps, a former high school baseball player and collegiate wrestler who lost his life in a hunting accident in 2015.
