Final Round-up Highlights
The learning experiences continued for the young Mount Mercy Softball team. The team consists of only one player who had high school softball experience. Although the team struggled at times this season, there is no substitute for the valuable experience gained by competing this season. With all but one player returning next year, the prospects are strong for a more successful year in 2022.
The team lost its games against Nardin, a double-header versus Saint Mary’s of Lancaster and Nichols. The team struggled offensively in the first three games but Coach Shannon Feind felt that the outfield showed great improvement and had strong games. Sophomores Megan Amicone (Buffalo) Amanda Solomon (North Collins) and Madison Serafini (Buffalo) play left, center and right fields, respectively. Amicone had five putouts in left field against Saint Mary’s.
The team improved its offense against Nichols with Serafini collecting two hits and an RBI. Freshman Emma Labby (Lakeview) had a two run triple. Freshman pitcher Emma Caughel (Hamburg) struck out four batters.
Awards Presented
The Mount Mercy Academy Softball team presented awards to Freshman pitcher Emma Caughel (Hamburg) as the Most Valuable Player for the softball team. Sophomore Trinity Kehoe (Derby) and freshman Emma Labby (Lakeview) shared the Most Improved Player Award.
