Kate Gordon became Kate Gordon Short along the way and her love of the game of Softball extended past her eligibility with the Dukes. While Women’s sports have made great strides in a number of areas but Softball still has aways to go.

There were offers from Japan 🇯🇵 and Australia 🇦🇺 but trying to play professionally here in the United States is still a challenge. In the past couple of years the Athletes Unlimited group has made the strongest attempt at giving players the opportunity to stay in the Country and pursue a professional career.

  We will explore the season after the College days as well as explore just what it might take for Softball to find a next level home.

Page County High School might have reached the conclusion first in regards to winning a State Championship in 2015 in large part because they did so in 2014. PCHS was returning their core group after finally reaching the mountain top the year before, leaving the question about how Carroll County felt during the season ?

This was year three of the Rick Nester experience and the Lady 👩 Cavaliers had a unique combination of talented Seniors and a group of 9th graders coming up from Junior Varsity.

Hannah Dalton, Cheyenne Strickland, Sydney Childress and Tiffanie Moore represented the Senior class. Gracie Davidson, Morgan Tompkins and Kayla Robinson were the juniors, giving the coaching staff of Rick Nester, Jeff Tobler and David Quesenberry seven players that were entering their third season together. Edwin Tompkins and Cindy Edwards were running 🏃‍♂️ the Junior Varsity team and things were starting to gell a bit.

  Here’s the actual question – at what point in the season were to players and coaches involved first thought outloud, we could win this thing ?

The school 🏫 had yet to win a State Championship so there wasn’t a blue print to use as a guide. In a perfect world I would get ten answers flowing in but I will work with the ones that come this way.

We know the back end answer, when the 21st out was recorded.
