Outlook:  I told the girls that we are on a journey and that we are going to have some highs and lows.  North Penn tradition has always been to play our best softball at the end of the year.  That is a tradition (17 straight years in the district playoffs) that we will continue - it is in our blood.  The key for us is to stay “Above the Line” and “Play in the Present”.
