This is the inaugural season for the Lady Lions Fastpitch Softball Team, though the team boasts two all-conference players.  The team plays in the MCAA conference and two tournaments as well as some non-conference games.  Our program includes girls in grades 7-12 and camps are offered for younger girls in the summer.
