Not many coaches hang around long enough anymore to accomplish what Tammy Olson did earlier this week.
Olson, now in her 30th season at Cary-Grove and the dean of Fox Valley Conference softball coaches, watched with joy and satisfaction on Monday when her Trojans beat Dundee-Crown, handing their coach her 500th career win.
"All the seasons have a special memory in some way or another. The game has changed throughout the years. Teams have moved in and out of the Fox Valley. Back in 2001 Kelli Gallas threw all but two games that season. I still remember playing Lake Zurich. I believe the game went 20 innings and we won 1-0. Yes, she threw the whole game."
Larkin update: The Royals have suddenly made a statement that they'd like to be included in the Upstate Eight title chase. Larkin pulled away for the win with 3 runs in the fourth inning. Julissa Aguinaga singled to score a run and Angelica Gonzalez singled in 2 runs.Sophomore Kaitlyn Neubert belted her first homer of the season against Fenton, while Baylei Johnson added another HR and now has 10 on the season. She is hitting .647 with 10 HRs, 6 doubles and 20 RBI.
St. Charles North update: The North Stars headed into Wednesday's DuKane Conference game against Glenbard North 10-1 overall and 3-0 in the DKC. Ashley Moore , Jessica Pleckham and Sophia Delgado lead the team in hitting. Katie Gambro has a team-high 14 RBI. "Sabre softball has gone through its ups and downs over the past years. We are trying to establish a team that can come together. We started our season with many of our girls never playing softball and from then to now, we have seen improvement on the field. We are taking each win and loss as a learning experience and becoming better players each time."
