r r —e— T he Lady Jackets softball team had a rebuilding year this season,having lost three seniors and gained seven new teammates.The team also welcomed new head coach Kathy Freese,a veteran coach who has worked with teams at Cedarville since 1991. The girls had some exciting wins and disappointing losses butended their overall season with a 12-27 record.The season began with a loss to Siena Heights,but the team wasthen able to shut out Cornerstone 5-0 with junior pitcher Kandis Armstrong tossing a two-hitter with five strikeouts and two walks. After a disappointing string of losses,the team again came out on top over Cornerstone at the Gene Cusic Classic in Florida,where they also won games against Siena Heights and Geneva.The team won a double header against Findlay and later produced a season high of 15 hits for a win against Malone. At the NCCAA Midwest Regional,the girls achieved a win against Spring Arbor and accepted an invitation to the NCCAA Nationals in Indiana,where the girls closed their season with a 3-2 loss against Judson. In the midst of wins and losses,the team soughtto encourage the girls they played against by writing each player ofthe opposing team a note ofencouragement.This outreach often presented an opportunity to share their love for Christ and open a door for friendship and ministry.Sophomore Charissa Rowe said ofthe team,"Since I wentto a public high school,I never had the opportunity to play with very many Christians.In my opinion,nothing compares to the awesome experience of playing with girls that desire to glorify Him with their ability. I believe the best thing that happened this season was watching myteammates grow in Christ,strive to serve Him,and challenge meto do the same" Vag Ate Stuote Peanatts. 4td Clutaeit.Tackv./ A Junior Aubree Munson grits her teeth and swings at a low pitch as she tries to bring Iler teammates home.
