Rocket Girls Fastpitch Season

By Student Reporter Brittni Emperley

The girls fast pitch team ended their season on a very good note. They played Oostburg for regional’s and were very close to winning. “We approved a lot from the first game to the last game of the season”, said Abi von Heimburg (catcher for the fast pitch team). They ended their season with three wins. Two of those wins were against Stockbridge, and the other against Living Word Lutheran. “Even though our record didn’t show it, we really made progress as the season went on”, said Stephanie Ruppel (pitcher for the fast pitch team). Stephanie Ruppel (pitcher) and Brianna Weavers (outfielder) both received second team all conference. Abi von Heimburg (catcher) and Jessica Burant (first base) received honorable mention. All the Girls on the team have high expectations of doing very well next year. The team had a very young lineup this year including no seniors, and will all be returning to take conference next year. Good job this season Rocket fast pitch team!!
