After some late games and long days Super Regionals are set! Can Oklahoma conquer Florida State in a rematch of last year’s Championship to move on and try to lay claim to their fourth in a row? Or will the number one seed Texas take it all? As much as we want to see Oklahoma try to make history we would love for Duke to make it to the finals and see them win their first ever NCAA Softball Championship

Hello everybody! We are the Axford’s, and present to you The Dugout! In 2023 a wonderful couple by the names of Mark and Lisa Liegl began what was known as “The Locker Room.” A donation based service providing those a place to for people to drop off and pickup gently used sporting equipment. As we all know life can happen and the Liegl’s had to make the decision to close The Locker Room. Hearing of this we decided we did not want to see something like this go away. So after reaching out and discussing things it was decided that I Jarrod and my wonderful wife Taylor Axford would take over The Locker Room and any inventory the Liegl’s had acquired. After going through the equipment and seeing what all was there we decided to narrow the focus down to just baseball and softball equipment. With narrowing it down we decided a need for a change in the name and this is how we landed on “The Dugout.”

Our main goal is to bring in gently used or new items that are donated to us relating to baseball and softball. We will then clean up, disinfect, repair as best we can and offer these items back to the community for free!! Monetary donations are greatly appreciated though so that we may continue the upkeep on repairing items brought in.

While our focus is only on baseball and softball we will not immediately turn away donations from other sports. We will however not keep a very large inventory and repairs will be minimal.

We understand that in todays day and age with the overall cost of living and how fast a child can go through things that it can be very hard to keep up. We do not want to ever see a child miss out on a sport due to parents not being able to afford the proper gear for their children and this is our way of giving back and trying to make sure that does not happen. So if you have a donation or are in need of a piece of equipment please reach out to us by messenger or by phone at (440)328-9438 and we will make sure to get you handled as best we can!

Welcome to The Dugout and let’s PLAY BALL!!
