Softball Coach Announces New Additions to Roster
7/27/06

Ryan
Zegarski, head coach of the women's softball team at Mercer County
Community College, has announced eight new players who will join
the team for the 2006-07 academic year. Coming off two highly successful
seasons in which the Vikings twice lost by one run in the Region
19 final, Zegarski believes that the team is realizing its goal
of attracting talented players to fill in the roster as the sophomores
move on. Zegarski has combined for a 52-30 record since he took
over the program two years ago after several seasons when the team
record was under .500.
"At
a two-year school, we need to identify gifted high school players
and attract them to our program," Zegarski said. "The
benefits to the players are real. With the right commitment from
them, these girls will get a lot of playing time in a competitive
environment. Our goal is to help them improve their game and develop
their athletic potential, while also giving them the foundation
they need to succeed in the classroom." Six players from Mercer's
2006 team are continuing their academic and playing careers at four-year
colleges this fall.
