All Miss Softball and Mr. Baseball winners will be recognized during the 2024 MHSAA State Championships at their respective locations – softball in Hattiesburg at the USM Softball Complex (beginning May 14) and baseball in Pearl at Trustmark Park (beginning May 21). Recipients will also be honored at a special awards luncheon, which will also be live streamed on the NFHS Network, in the MHSAA Conference Center on Tuesday, May 28.
