Robin Hunt was on first base, Kim Cyganik was up at bat. The count was three balls and one strike and the next pitch was coming. Kim smashed a hit and sent Robin to second base. Next up was Theresa Gagliarcli who tripled and sent Robin and Kim home. By the end of the sec- ond inning, the score was eight- zip. What an hitting marathon that was! That game and many others like it would not have turned out so well if it was not for the pitch- ing of Kelly McDermott. Lisa Ca- passo commented, Kelly really held up our team. Without her, we could not have won as many Left: Offering their congratulations, Mau- reen Leary, Kristen Hauser, Karrie Reilly, Nancy Lee, and Kelly McDermott greet Theresa Gagliardi. games, even with our great hit- ters. When the team needed hits, there was always someone to provide clutch hitting. When I saw the team hit, l was amazed. They kept their eyes on the ball and knewjust how to hit it, said Krista Larsen. Sacred Heart's softball team had a great season. They not only had an awesome pitching staff, but also had many good hitters and fielders. All of them combined made an incredible team. Robin Hunt said, Our team could not have done as well as we did without our to- getherness. We all got along and worked together. This was what made a bunch of girls a team. The softball team played un- der the coaching of Miss Cheryl Girardi. Miss Girardi coached the Sacred Heart team for the first time this year. She was assisted by Mr. William lovanne, Mr. Son- ny Melotti and Mr. Vinnie Melotti. l-!fQe?53G151i3Qg?H Softball
