2022 Rocket Fastpitch C-Squad
In 2022 we only have two full squads: Varsity and C-Squad (also referred to as B/C-Squad). The C-Squad will play a schedule based on the "9th Grade" schedule posted on big9.org. This squad will include 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th graders. For practices the C-Squad will generally walk from JM to Washington Elementary, then walk back to JM after practice finishes. Stay tuned for schedule changes, as we will try to play JV games and C-Squad games as back to back 5 inning games. In this case the JV squad will be a combination of Varsity non-starters and C-Squad players. Some team members will play both games to make the numbers work. Go Rockets!
Games Postponed Thurs May 2nd: Todays games vs Mayo are postponed due to rain. Makeup date TBD. No practice today (Thurs). Friday practice schedule: B/C Squad 3:30pm - 5pm, Varsity 4:30pm - 6pm.
May 8th (Wed) JV Game: We will play a JV game on Wed May 8th vs Lourdes at 4:30pm. Location is JM varsity field. JV team will be combination of Varsity and B/C Squad players.
