2003-2004 Season Summary: Varsity Girls' Softball

Depleted by graduation last spring and a rash of injuries at the start of the season, softball appeared to be in a rebuilding mode entering the 2004 campaign. Undaunted, the young team responded with a competitive 6-8 record, including several heart-breaking losses to the leagues top teams. Led by captain Christa Miller-Shelley (who led the team in every major offensive category) and Lizzy Malin at the plate, the team was much improved offensively from years past. Meanwhile, Captain Roberta Cordeau and Candace Turnbull anchored a particularly solid infield defense that keyed the way to victories over the likes of Hotchkiss and Taft. The team will lose only 3 players to graduation and appear on the verge of contending for a league title next year under Coach Gene Campbell and star pitcher Evee Elswick.
