Mid-Con softball, a joke

You could understand why there were very few Centenary Ladies or Gents selected to the All Mid-Con basketball teams after those two squads finished in the bottom of the league, but the Mid-Con softball coaches embarrassed themselves on Thursday by voting just one Ladies player, Micah Rhodes, to the league's first team.

The Ladies finished second in the league and have won the Mid-Con postseason tournament title two consecutive seasons. First place Southern Utah landed four first teamers, third place Western Illinois had five and fourth place Oakland put three on the team.

The slight should give coach Mark Montgomery's team some added incentive when the Mid-Con tourney kicks off on Friday.
