The CSM women's softball team is in mid-season swing. The Oredigger women are currently sitting at 14-13 with about half of the season left to go.
CSM had an impressive showing this past weekend by going 2-1 for the series against Adam's State.
Pitcher Katie Kocman came away with two wins on the three game series. She led her team to an 11-1 victory in the second game and a 8-0 win in the third game. Mines lost the first game to the Grizzlies 4-2.
Kocman also swung the bat well as she went three for three at bat in the first game, with one RBI. Margie Cone led Mines in the third game, hitting in three runs and going a perfect three for three at bats.
CSM also had an impressive set of wins last Thursday in a double header versus Fort Hayes State. The Orediggers came out on top in the first game, winning by a slim 5-4. Pitcher Taylor Cayou led the first game allowing only ten hits and striking out six.
The second game was much more decisive when Mines won over Fort 10-1. Kocman pitched this game and guided Mines to victory after only allowing six hits. One of the biggest assets of the day was senior Beth Skidmore, who got two runs and four RBI's versus Fort Hayes.
This year's women's softball team is led by Head Coach Mark Roberts. 2007 marks Mark's eighth season as head coach. In 2002, he received the RMAC's Coach of the Year Award after a season record of 22-26. Coach Roberts accredits their success this season to "great leadership from seniors Beth Skidmore and Brianne Brennan." The coach went on to say; "We've been working and practicing real hard for the competition."
The women's softball team had their first ten games of the season cancelled due to weather, but in the opener, they creamed Colorado College 30 to nothing. The women's team didn't allow a single run on the day as they even beat CC 6-0 on the Night Cap.
Over Spring Break, the women's team traveled to the Tucson Invitational. They worked hard for a record of 5-3 on the trip beating teams like Bethany 11-2 and Benedictine College 10-0. This was an out of conference tournament that put Spring Break to good use.
There are still 24 games left in the season for the women's softball team and ten of them are at home. This gives the perfect opportunity for all you fans to see how well women's softball represents Mines Athletics.
The Orediggers' gets back to action on March 28th at 1pm and 3pm at Regis College in Denver.
