Despite a lackluster win record, hard work and dedication has helped the lady Eagles softball team become closer as a unit.

The team is currently 0-7 in district.

“It can be frustrating that we are 0-7 in district,” senior Angelica Ramirez said. “We just have to make sure that we don’t give up after one person makes an error because it all goes down hill from there.”

Making sure that the team doesn’t give up has been a struggle this year.

“We are like a family, but just like sisters, when we are around each other for too long we start getting annoyed with each other,“ senior Bailey Compton said.

Team chemistry is very important to players on the squad.

“We get along so well. All the previous years we never got along as good as we do this season and it creates the chemistry we need on the team this year,” senior Alyssa Gonzales said.

Hard work has also helped bring the team closer together.

“Every single one of the girls has worked so hard this year,” Compton said.

Six seniors are leaving after this year, three of which have been signed to play at the college level

“Talent, good chemistry and dedication has made the season enjoyable even without racking up a string of wins,” senior Marisol Gomez said. “The losses have helped us appreciate our love of the game.”
