We are pleased that you are able to join us and help cheer our softball team on to victory. This year’s program promises to offer excitement, enthusiasm and success. We are proud of our student athletes and their coaches. They have worked hard to prepare for the season’s many challenges and they really appreciate your attendance at these athletic events. We have a proud tradition of fielding competitive athletic teams, but victory takes many forms. We expect our athletes to be winners in the contest, in the classroom and in life. Intercollegiate athletics play an important part in the community life of our college. The men and women participating on the various teams have a unique opportunity to grow both as athletes and as students. In doing so, they gain information, insights and skills that will carry them forward as they seek the path to achieve their goals. Futures are the true strength of our athletics program. I extend to our coaches and athletes congratulations on what I am sure is going to be a successful season. To our friends, thank you for your help and support.
