Scrubs’ Softball Season
continued from page 2
“I went out there to play ball; I did not want to be the manager or coach the team. On the ball field, other people energize me. I am hoping that the we will continue in the fall.” For senior accounts manager Tina Carter, it was the first time she played team softball. ”I exceeded my expectations,” she said. “Coming in, I had never played softball, but I embraced the game and with my teammates help. I learned a lot.” The best thing about playing on the team for Tina was getting know her teammates outside of the workplace. “Everyone is so funny and kind.” And Carl gets Tina’s vote as Most Valuable Player. “He’s a great pitcher and leader, plus he’s pretty active for being an “Old Guy!” Pharmacy student Brad Hughes was impressed with the team’s improvement over the season. “To tell you the truth, when we were first practicing, I didn’t think we would win any games,” he said. “But the team certainly picked up the pace and played well.” Like Tina, Brad said the best thing about playing was getting to know everyone on the team. He also agreed with Tina that Carl was the team MVP. “Carl was an inspiration to us all.”
