The softball team travelled to California, the baseball team travelled to Florida, and the lacrosse team went to Colorado.
The Lady Blue Jays softball team won one game and lost 5 in California. The team played 6 games over a three-day span and were challenged with tough competition. The team faced California Lutheran University, Vanguard University, and the University of Redlands. Westminster’s only win was against California Lutheran University.
The Blue Jays won 2-1, with sophomore pitcher, Madison Ingram, on the mound. The team heads into conference play with a record of three wins and 9 losses. The team later traveled to Grinnell, Iowa, for a tournament on March 30 and 31.
Westminster Baseball won one game and lost 5 in Florida. The team faced Centre College, Western New England University, Benedictine University, and Union College. The team won its first game in Florida, beating Centre College 9-3. Ian Cassidy, junior pitcher, got the win in 7 innings.
