The Emporia High School softball team is gearing up for an exciting and promising season ahead. With a new coach at the helm, Coach Admin Admin, the team has set ambitious goals and has been working hard to establish themselves as a competitive force in the state. Coach Admin Admin’s philosophy for the team is based on building a strong foundation, establishing routines, and creating a united identity. With this in mind, his ultimate goal is to see the team become a cohesive unit that works together to achieve success. This can only be achieved if there is buy-in from all players and supporters. The team is made up of a mix of both experienced returning players and some new additions that are sure to make an impact.
