Congratulations to the UCSC Fall 2004 Intramural Coed Softball Champions! After falling two runs behind early, solid defense and timely hitting prevailed in a convincing 17--7 Re-Entry win over the Cowell Corrupters in the championship game on Friday December 3. There was no let-up through the entire lineup, as eleven unanswered runs in the middle innings turned a close game into a foregone conclusion. After four years of drought, the championship returns to the fabled Re-Entry franchise.
Re-Entry reached the championship game after a near perfect season that included a first place finish in the Friday league followed by a strong showing in the semi-final match this past Wednesday. Despite a somewhat depleted roster and despite falling behind early, our team rebounded late in the semi-finals with four runs in the penultimate inning to go ahead by three runs. Hanging on to a one run lead heading into the final inning, our offense finally exploded with eight runs to put the game away. As a result, we moved on to the championship game to face the first place team in the Wedensday league---the Cowell Corrupters.
The next game will take place in April, 2005 when Re-entry begins its
championship defense in the spring 2005 season. We are tentatively
planning for spring training in early March. More information will be
provided at a later date. Happy holidays to all and best wishes for a
fruitful new year!

All fields are adjacent to the East Field House. The field closest to the swimming pool is Field 1 (for another view click here). Follow the running track in the direction of Monterey Bay to reach Field 2. Keep following the track as it turns, and you will then end up at Field 3, which is the furthest of the three softball fields from the Field House.
