2020  S e a s o n

The 2019 WHAT? Softball season was the club’s 22nd season in Lake County and 5th in the Mundelein League. They began their season on January 24th with the annual Chula Vista Tournament with a game one victory against Midwest Swing club, to a score of 21 – 4, and finished the season in Mundelein during Fall League with a defeat against Teddy O’Brians squad to a score of 15 – 5.

The ongoing novel coronavirus pandemic has roiled every layer of society and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Lake County Softball has been no exception. Now, the only thing certain about the 2020 season is the uncertainty surrounding it.

This is how we got to that uncertain and uneasy place in softball.

There is belief within the organization that the clubhouse, filled with vibrant, youthful stars and savvy veterans, can overcome this adversity and keep their focus on the ultimate goal. But the WHAT? Sftbll Club knew that their batting order wouldn’t be there strength going into the season. The teams that outplayed their talent early often succumb to softball gravity. Teams that under performed into a late-September panic often look up and find themselves just about where they thought they would be.
