UHS Softball Program Set For Season's First Pitch

    The Umatilla High School softball season has arrived, with Bulldog varsity and JV teams gearing up for a 22 - game season.
    Head Coach Jessica Meier, Coach Kylie Stewart Roberts, and Coach Josh Clark have been prepping both teams in recent weeks as the season nears.
    “We are excited about this group of student-athletes and the work they have already put into preparing for the season,” Meier said this week.
    The team rosters include:  JV Softball Roster:  Tashana Gingerich, Abigail Borgnis, Ashton Baker, Denise Patterson, Ayla Donehoo, Raelynn Taylor, Leah Bertlaney, Gracelynn Barth, Bayleigh Marable, and Abigail Branum.
    Varsity Softball Roster:  Hailey Bates, Chloe Rumford, Brooke Berrisford, Abigail Manning, Brook Thomas, Jaelyn Larsen, Abigail Bradshaw, Kyla Mewhorter, Rilynn McCullough,  and Aylinn Thomas.
    “As coaches, we have high expectations for our players both on the field and in the classroom. We are committed to helping them grow as responsible students, leaders, and representatives of UHS,”  Meier said of the balance needed to support a solid spring on the field and in the classroom.
    The season will begin on Tuesday, February 17 with a game at home against Belleview.  First pitch is scheduled for 6 p.m.
