Conference Brings Confidence

This past weekend was our Conference Tournament, and it was a blast! The 10 hour bus ride flew by with movies, teammates, and baby Drew to entertain us. Once in Conway, Arkansas, we ate at the team's favorite restaurant, Marketplace Grill.

The weather threatened to ruin our weekend, but Hendrix College worked hard to get the field into shape. We started the tournament on fire and crushed Rhodes College, who was ranked #2 in the east division. Another highlight was our come-from-behind, 9 inning nail biter against Centre College, in which we proved victorious. Overall, we placed 4th and had an amazing trip.

For us freshmen, Conference was unlike anything we had experienced in our softball careers. Our season had its ups and downs, but we never gave up, and making it to the Conference Tournament was a wonderful reward for our perseverance. We will all miss our seniors, who contributed to the team on and off the field in countless ways. We wish Helen, Caitlin, and Texas all the best as they begin the next chapter of their lives.

I can't wait for next season!
