Softball Wins 2019 IGC Championship With Perfect Season
Congratulations to the Softball team on winning the Independent Girls Conference Championship this spring, for the second consecutive year! The Chargers finished the season with an overall, undefeated record of 12-0, a first in CH-CH history.
Seasoned veterans, but also athletes learning softball for the first time, worked together to achieve this perfect season. The Chargers scored 228 runs, with nine different athletes finishing the season with batting averages over .370. Leila C. (‘21) led the way, batting .795. Makayla M. (‘20) tallied 109 strike-outs, pitching all 12 games for the Chargers.
Dedication and a focus on skill development have been the key to the softball team’s success. Coach Jacquie MacDonald reflects that “at almost every practice you could expect to see someone staying late, taking batting practice or working on her fielding. Our players love competing and working on their games, and it's great when this type of attitude lines up with a championship season. When talent, dedication, and team chemistry coalesce in this way, it can lead to something pretty special, and for us this meant an undefeated season.”
The Chargers four-year graduating seniors, Emma M. (‘19) and Kathleen C. (‘19) will be missed but Coach MacDonald “hopes that watching these seniors lead us to their third championship in four years has inspired some of our younger players to keep working at it. Our seniors have grown in their skills every year they have played for us, and they have shown their teammates that dedication pays off!”
Congratulations, and GO CHARGERS!
