Seven DMACC Softball Recruits Earn All-State Honors
Seven members of the first recruiting class for the DMACC softball program earned all-state honors in their final seasons as high school players.
Earning first-team honors were pitcher Brittney Kubik of Martensdale St. Marys, catcher Jayden Ott of Manly Central Springs and outfielder Makenzie Alstott of Fort Dodge.
Second-team honors went to Ames High catcher/second baseman Madison Mickelson. Wilton High School third baseman Carlee Grunder and Winterset High School pitcher Mari Silliman garnered third-team honors.
First baseman Kalli Wells of Shawnee Heights High School in Tecumseh, Kan., earned Kansas’s large school all-state honors.
Sydney McCune, who played high school softball for Woodward-Granger High School, garnered second team all-state honors in 2010 as an infielder. McCune came to DMACC to play volleyball, but has opted to join the softball program.
DMACC announced in November that it is adding softball to its intercollegiate athletic program and named Bob Ligouri as the head coach. DMACC will begin softball action with the 2011-12 school year.
