BC softball coach Sandi Taylor said this was one of BC’s best seasons ever. “This was our highest seed ever in a regional,” said Taylor. They were seeded eighth in Southern California.

Taylor said pitcher Ashley Bailey broke the BC softball pitcher season record with 30 wins this season. She said as a team they hit 23 home runs this season, the highest ever.

Taylor said the team will be losing five sophomore players, including Bailey.
