Softball Schedule April 10 T ower Hill Away 21 Middletown Home May 10 Middletown Away 17 Friends School Away 19 Delaware City Home 26 Newark Home The 1960 softball team scurried out to practice in mid- March with the prospect of a heavy season. Friends School was included for the first time in the schedule. Using only two pitchers for the season, the team looked forward to an undefeated year. Sheila Larson, a fast- throwing senior, led the pitching with Arlene Harper, a freshman, relieving her. Both hurlers used the same catch- er, Senior Rosemary Hagey. A strong, ball-stopping infield backed up by a lively outfield combined to form a strong defensive unit. A trio of hard hitters, Claire Melton, Ruth Heite, and Carol Sinclair, provided the necessary in- centive at the plate. Best all-round players this year were Mary Lou Lobaccaro, Barbara Baker, Claire Melton, and Ruth Heite. A natural when it comes to girls’ softball, Sheila Larson demonstrated the proper form in capturing a fast rolling ground ball. A four-year player, she was one of the six experienced seniors on the ‘60 squad.
