ALUMNI GAME

Special day well worth attending
Wesley softball alumni game
scheduled for September 29


Wesley’s softball alumni did more than attend classes, study hard and earn a degree.

They also spent countless hours in physical conditioning, weightlifting and an intense schedule of afternoon and weekend softball games, mostly doubleheaders, on the road and at home.

Most devoted the same time to their sport throughout high school. Many made it a routine from elementary school.

Then suddenly, it was over. Or, maybe not. At least for one day.

On Saturday, September 29, at 11:00 AM, representatives of the Wesley College Wolverine softball alumni return to DuPont Field. Those far afield in their professions and unable to attend will be with them in spirit.

There’s a special pride in wearing the Wolverine navy and white. So these women will one more time proudly take the field to play this day against the current 2018-19 undergraduate squad.

All of these graduates may be removed from the game but they are, of course, no strangers to its fastpitch batting, fielding, and base running. Now they will strive once again on dirt and grass for these annual seven innings. The returning Wesley players will be honored in a contest of both fun and friendly competition.

Backyard games and activities also are planned for the alumni and attending fans.
