With less than three weeks to go in the spring semester, the softball and baseball teams are rounding third base and heading for home plate ending their fall and spring seasons. Arms are sore and bats are dented as the end of the month of April is fast approaching and the baseball and softball teams see the light at the end of the tunnel.

April is jam packed for both of these teams with the majority of ball games fall within the month of April, which makes it exceptionally tough on these student athletes as they must finish out the end of the semester in the classroom, as well as out on the diamond.

The Lady Seawolves have had their backs against the wall for the majority of the season, and this month, the YSCC is throwing everything in its arsenal in the direction of the Lady Seawolves. The softball team found themselves in the win column only twice this month, when Massasoit Community College fell mercifully to the hungry SMCC softball squad, 18-6 and 14-4 on April 10th and 12th respectfully.

As of now, the SMCC baseball squad is riding high among a four game win streak. The wins include a 10-0 beat down of CMCC and three wins against NHTI, 10-3, 12-2 and 9-6. As the postseason approaches, the Seawolves are riding high going with the playoffs insight and have their eyes on a playoff run that could take them into the championship game.

In the most recent contests, SMCC softball stood opposite the YSCC’s top team, the NHTI Lynx for three games on Friday and Saturday, April 22nd and 23rd. The Lady Wolves managed to limit the Lynx offensive firepower, but inconsistent defense allowed NHTI to come up with huge innings in both games of the doubleheader. NHTI proved to be the superior team in all contests ass they won easily, 15-1, 14-2, 15-3 respectfully.

On the same day, the baseball team captured two wins in a doubleheader here at the Graves Athletic Complex. Calab Chambers had an impressive outing for the Seawolves, finishing the afternoon with two doubles, two home runs, eight RBIs, four runs and a stolen base in two games throughout the course of the day.

Come out and support this Seawolves softball and baseball teams, but if you haven’t been to a game, make sure you make it out to the doubleheader, against our rival school, Central Maine Community College Mustangs. The first pitch of the doubleheader is scheduled for 2:30 Wednesday afternoon, while the second contest will be kicked off directly following the first.

While the Lady Wolves have struggled as of late, if they manage to make a berth in the YSCC Tourney, anything can happen and this community would love nothing more than to rally behind them.
