We just wanted to wish a HUGE congratulations to our Wolverines 1 softball team. Division 3 gold medal 🥇 winners in Hershey at the State Championships!!

They won on a walk off hit by Cole Vay 🥎! After being down 9-6 going into the last inning they won 10-9 over Lancaster County. The team went 4-1 on the weekend capped off by a storybook ending. Excellent team wins.

Congratulations to Head Coach Dan DePalma, as well as assistant Coaches Jeff Vay, Jerry Liston, Dave Sciullo and athlete coach Jason DePalma.

We also wanted to say we are proud of EVERY Wolverine that participated in softball this season that were not in attendance this weekend (the last two pictures are the full program). We also wanted to thank ALL volunteer coaches for your time and effort.

Overall great season #1! Congratulations 👏
