Central Bucks South Softball Preview

CENTRAL BUCKS SOUTH SOFTBALL PREVIEW

Coach:  Kevin Rosini (second year)

Assistant coach:  Ellen Goldstein

Last year’s record:  14-7, 10-2 SOL Continental Conference co-champions

Key returnees:  Sr. Alex DeLeon (SS); Jr. Kylie Kenney (P); Jr. Alexa Ortman (CF); So. Katie Hines (2B); So. Maddie Rowley (LF)

Others to watch:  Sr. Maddie McShane (C); Jr. Ashley Ladzenski (RF); Jr. Olivia Zoolalian (1B/P); Jr. Amanda Regan (1B/P)

Outlook: The Titans lost seven seniors to graduation but return five key starters. They are strong up the middle with All-SOL Continental first team selections Kylie Kenney (pitcher), Alex DeLeon (shortstop) and Alexa Ortman (center field). Ortman also earned second team all-state honors.
The Titans are looking to defend a conference title they shared with North Penn and go deeper into the district playoffs after last year’s opening round loss. A power team last year, the Titans will be using a lot more small ball than in the past. “We’ll be playing a little bit differently offensively because we have to,” coach Kevin Rosini said. “If we can do that – and we have the parts to do it, we’ll be in pretty good shape. Execution is the key – we have to execute, defensively as well.”
