Softball season is officially here! The team began conditioning in late November so everyone would be ready for tryouts. Now that tryouts are over and the team is picked, everyone is working as hard as they can in practice so they are ready for game time. The first game is on February 13 and the season lasts until late April to early May. There are many home games this season that you’re not going to want to miss!
Varsity went 6-5 in league last year and hope to do even better this year. For the past four seasons, it has been PV and the team that coach Vic calls their biggest competition, St. Patrick St Vincent, in the championship. PV has pulled through for the win every season except the last. Although the team came in second, they still made it to the second NCS game which is a big accomplishment. “The goal for this season is to win the championship”, said coach Vic.
Last year, four highly useful players who made up most of the infield, graduated. This includes the team’s two best pitchers and catcher. Some might consider this a setback. But not coach Vic! When asked about how this might affect the team, he responded, “ It won’t. We’ll do great.”
The team was lucky enough to have picked up a lot of new players. Varsity now has some great new infielders, including three new pitchers and a catcher. The team also has some good hitters and fast baserunners. So there is nothing to worry about! With the help of their coaches, the new players, as well as the returning players, are determined to have a great season!
