OnFocus Columbus Catholic Dons Softball Season Preview
Key returners: seniors Hailey Zimmermann P/1st, Cierra Dierenger C/IF, Juniors Sam Casperson 3rd/ SS, Mattea Schlafke C/OF, Maggie Callaghan 2nd/OF, Rhya Dierenger 1st/OF, Sophomore Akosua Yeboah P/IF
Strengths: Our depth. We have multiple girls that can play many positions. Our P/C positions and our offense will put up runs.
Conference outlook: Until someone knocks Neillsville off the top you can’t vote against them. Great coaching in Loyal/Greenwood and Gilman always have them at contenders. The other teams in conference will all be better from last year because they have good numbers and return experience. I expect us to compete for a conference championship and hopefully a deep run in the playoffs.
