FIRST HOME GAME

Lots of softball ahead
Arcardia, first home game
scheduled for next Thursday


Disappointed that the Beach Blast tournament was canceled? Well, wait another week for a flurry of games to run right through mid-April. As a matter of fact, there are eleven games scheduled with ten different schools over just the 9 days from March 6 – 14. 


This Thursday, March 6, our Wesley Wolverines will host the Acardia Knights as they open their 2014 season with a doubleheader at 3:00 PM & 5:00 PM on our DuPont Field, 500 Mary Street, Dover, DE.


The Knights are expected to finish 5th in the Commonwealth Conference, tied with the Widener Pride, according to the Middle Atlantic Conferences (III MAC) preseason poll. There are eleven teams in the competitive Pennsylvania league. (Wesley will take on Widener at home on Wednesday, March 19.)

Arcadia is coming off a 2013 season that saw the Knights post an overall record of 16-22, which included a 6-12 mark in conference games. There's an impressive battery. Now senior P/ 2B Jessica Woods earned first-team all-conference last year, while behind the plate senior Leanda Helms batted .355 with 5 home runs. This season the Knights have five freshmen with 13 undergraduates returning, three of whom are seniors. Head coach Linda Detra is entering her 21st season leading the Knights.
