The coaching staff is hosting a fall softball league for high school players. Games will be played at Lakeland Community College from August 23 through October 18. Click here to access the schedule.
October 19, 2009 Coach Judy Sargent has been busy this fall, running her many new recruits through their paces as they played a fall schedule that consisted of about two dozen games. In addition to the many new faces, Sargent expects to have several players return from last spring’s squad. Pitcher/Outfielder Katie Basmagy has signed her National Letter of Intent (NLI) and will return to Lakeland for her second year. It is also expected that Samantha Dean and Tina Schneider will also be back for the Lakers. Dean had an outstanding 2009 spring season and was named Lakeland’s 2009 Female Athlete of the Year. Stephanie Stellato, a 2008 Twinsburg High School grad was red-shirted in 2009 because of an injury. She plays catcher, the outfield and the middle infield. The fall season was an exciting time where the team got to know each other, and learned to play as a cohesive unit. Sargent is quite enthusiastic about the new talent joining the program this year. Here are the basics on the new Lakers. Taylor Cooper is a pitcher from Southington High School in Parkman Township. She is a 2009 graduate. Shannon Cruz is a 2009 Harvey High School graduate who hit about .500 at Harvey and plays catcher. Julie Lopardo plays shortstop and pitches. She is a 2009 graduate of Villa Angela – St. Joseph High School. Brittany Tecco is from West Geauga High School. This 2009 graduate will probably catch or play the outfield for the Lakers, although she can also play both first and third base. Amber Drenski, is a second West Geauga recruit. She is a 2009 graduate who plays center field. Painesville’s Harvey High School sends Lakeland another recent grad in second baseman Cierra Marshall. Leah Moore, a 2009 graduate of Harding High School in Fairport Harbor, will be joining the Lakers. She batted third for the Skippers this spring, while playing third base and catcher. Her travel team is the Sunraze. Mentor High School sends the Lakers Brittany Thomas. This 2009 grad plays second base and outfield. Another infielder added to the fold is Diana Moorman. She is an ’09 graduate of NDCL who plays second base. Megan Passwaiter is a North High School graduate who pitches and plays catcher and first base. Coach Sargent is pretty happy with how her team is shaping up; however, she would like to pick up another pitcher. Anyone, no matter what their position, who is interested in playing softball at Lakeland Community College should contact Sargent at softball@lakelandcc.edu.
