The LC Softball team begins the season hosting Rhodes this Saturday (Feb. 10), at 12 p.m. and 2 p.m.
The teams
Both teams are starting the 2024 regular season against each other. LC did have an away exhibition this past Saturday (Feb. 3) against Point U. The Panthers dropped the first game 10-2 and the second 4-2. LC is coming off of a 13-23 season (7-9 CCS). One key player that is returning this year is Claire Chamberlain. Last season, Chamberlain was named CCS Rookie Pitcher of the Year after having one of the best CCS ERA (3.42). The talented freshman finished with a record of 10-10, completed 13 games and also registered one save. Rhodes has yet to play any games this year but will face off against Co-CCS member Huntingdon this Friday (Feb. 10). Rhodes is coming off of a 12-25 (4-14 SAA) season.
Series history
LaGrange College and Rhodes College have faced each other four times. Overall, Rhodes leads the series 3-1, but the Panthers won 2-0 in the last matchup (March 16, 2012).
When and where
The Panthers first home games of the season are this Saturday (Feb. 10), at 12 p.m. and 2 p.m. Both games can be streamed here.
