Weigel always fought for the team. If he thought there was a bad call he would stop the game and go talk to the umps. This shows that he really cares about the team.

Mr. Mark Weigel has coached the softball team for many years; he helped form the softball program and always helped out with the younger players.

“I really wanted to play for him, he has helped me a lot over the years and I was so excited,” said Liz Izworski, 9.

Weigel was planning on coaching for one more year, but because of a family crisis will not be coaching the softball team’s upcoming season.

This leaves every one wondering who will be the head coach. Some people think it might be the assistant coach, others are not so certain.

“I do not know if she would coach because she is always very busy and it is a big time commitment,” said Lydia Sloan, 11

  The new coach has not been chosen or revealed yet but many are wondering who it will be.
