The Eagles
enter the 2010 season with a fresh start. With 8 freshman
joining the squad and a new coaching staff the team has made some
big changes. The squad plans on putting past seasons behind
them and creating a new legacy for Avila Softball. Erin Sapp,
Courtney Ryan and Lana Dunning were voted captains in the fall by
their teammates and coaches and have done a tremendous job since of
preparing and leading their team.
The 2010 season will feature
a better offense and defense then seasons past. Both the infield
and outfield will have a completely different look from last years
team. The eagles also have more depth than in years
past which allowed the staff to push the team to new levels
of competition. The pitching staff looks to be strong with
the addition of several Freshman to the battery.
Offense should be more potent
and will threaten to score more often. The team has more speed
and is more aggressive on the bases. The team plans to create
more excitement on the base path and take advantage of any miscues
from the opponents defense. With the combined speed and power
the staff feels our offense is going to be a fun thing to watch!
Overall 2010 is a season
of rebirth. The eagles first pitch is scheduled for Feb. 20th
against Haskell Indian University in Lawrence, KS.
DC Eagles!
