The 2018 Bluffton Pirates junior high softball program announces plans for next spring.
The organizers make this announcement so that they will know the number of girls interested in playing softball for scheduling purposes.
“We have four team goals, which include team, effort, attitude and motivation,” said Lou Savage, one of the four coaches. “In addition, the bonus goal is to have fun.”
Rehearsals for Bluffton University’s 122nd performance of Handel’s “Messiah” will be held from 7-8:30 p.m. Mondays beginning Oct. 2, in the Gilliom Room of Mosiman Hall on campus.
