SOFTBALL

The Lady Lancers have played well this spring and are currently 10-14 overall and sitting in 5th place league.  Arguably one of the best softball leagues in Southern Section Division 5.  A win today vs. Arrowhead Christian will propel them into 4th place.  Coach Cramer has done a great job leading the Lancers to three more wins than they had a year ago against a much tougher schedule.  The ladies are at home today at Greenbelt Park at 3:45P against Arrowhead Christian.  This will be their last home game before they finish the season on the road Thursday at Aquinas.
