Last night the Panther Middle School Softball team celebrated their 8th grade players and won their first round of regionals. This year they have 28 girls in 6-8th grade participate. They won last Thursday evening to secure co-champs in the small school division of Metro East Athletic Conference. Their record stands at 8-4 on the season. They will now continue play in the Edwardsville regional. Congratulations to our incredible 8th grade softball players on a fantastic season! Thank you for playing with heart, hustle, and grit every time you stepped onto the field. A huge thank you to our coaches for your leadership and dedication, and to our families for every carpool, cheer, and dugout snack along the way. 8th graders, carry this team spirit with you into high school and keep swinging for the fences!
