The Lady Juggs` Softball team this year started out with a whopping eight seniors. And although the season started with a lot of snow/rain outs the Juggs aren’t doing too terribly bad with the thirteen game cancelations. They do not have a winning record, but there is still plenty of time in the season to reach that goal.
The season started out with the Ladies playing a team that wasn’t even on their schedule. The Juggs lost to Simon Kenton as it was only their second time outside all season and first time on a field. They then played Boone Co., who they have not played for about 2 years now, and lost-this was their third time outside and second time on a field.
Next for the Juggs was their first All A game. The Juggs played Villa Madonna and won 8-3. In between All A games the Juggs gained more field experience as they played 4 games, one of those being a district game. The Juggs didn’t win any of these 4 games, but three of them were very close games.
Then they continued the All A tournament and played Bellevue-they won 16-0 in 5th innings. They then played Dayton in tough battled but lost 10-7 in the 8th inning. The struggle during this game was that they had three seniors-two of which started-quit after the Bellevue game.
The Juggs then played Highlands and struggled to get momentum going. They lost that game, but came back Saturday to win both games in their double header. They beat Calvary Christian 12-2 in 6 innings and Bath Co. 10-9 with an amazing comeback after being down 9-2 going into the 7th.
The Juggs have the potential for a great season this year with around 20 games left.
