“I feel really happy that we beat Shadow because all season we weren’t really doing well against them, and we were able to show that we can beat them,” said junior Sophie Bendlin. “I think that we are such a good group of girls, and when it comes down to rough games, we can always count on each other to keep our spirits up and I think that is what helps us win.”

With performances like this, the Coronado softball team continues to prove how talented and hardworking they are this season. The Cougars showed strong teamwork throughout the game, and we are excited to see how they perform in future games.
