Ladies' Fast-Pitch Softball

2007 Season Recap

The Lady Knights completed an outstanding season in 2007, winning a school record 32 games! The Lady Knights team finished second in the regular season with an 11-7 record, earning them the second seed in the Region X Conference Tournament. A disappointing one run loss to Louisburg College in the championship game left the Lady Knights as the runner-up for the second year in a row. Along the way the Lady Knights captured the Bronze Bracket Championship in the Wallace State JUCO Tournament in Alabama, defeating Young Harris College in the championship game.

The team hosted the second annual Ringor Fastpitch Invitational in February that attracted 16 teams from across the south. The third annual spring tournament is scheduled in February 2008 with a strong field representing Georgia, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee and South Carolina.

In their three years of competition, the Lady Knights have compiled a career record of 87 wins and 47 losses in their first 134 games.

Nine outstanding high school seniors have signed to play with the Lady Knights in 2007-2008. Along with 7 returning players from 2006-2007, the Lady Knights should again challenge for a conference championship and a berth in the NJCAA Division I National Championship.
