SOFTBALL SIGHTS LAST WEEK OF WINTER 2014 SEASON

-Sal Riggio reporting

Another great softball season in The Villages despite Mother Nature not being very cooperative.  Thanks to Travis Rima and his great crew of guys who do such an amazing job getting the fields in such super shape.  Thanks to all the volunteers- umpires, score keepers, managers and board members.  Thanks to the fans who attend the games and cheer on their heroes.  And “Bravo!” to the thousands of players who once again demonstrated their skill and good sportsmanship.
