The varsity girls softball team is still continuing their dominance against all the other Baltimore City schools in the 2016-17 school year, resulting in a 13-2 record for the season so far.

 

The softball team suffered a loss against Benjamin Franklin on April 18th with a final score of 11-18, ending their undefeated streak. But they did not let that affect how they played, because soon after that loss, Patterson won several complete blowouts, including a 20-5 win over Lake Clifton and a 26-0 win over FAET.

“It’s our best season ever!”, declared Coach Mahoney.

These victories wouldn’t have been possible without the softball team’s hard work. According to Coach Mahoney, the team practices daily. They complete several drills use a pitching machine and they scrimmage during practice.

Four seniors on the team are graduating this year: Morgan, Naydean, Justist and Damanique. “We are sad but wish them the best in their future plans.”, Ms. Mahoney said.
