Hancock Softball Ranked for First Time Since 1999
For the first time in more than a decade, the Allan Hancock College softball team has earned a spot in the state and regional polls. The latest California Community College Fast Pitch Coaches Association polls were released on Wednesday. The Bulldogs are tied for eighth in the Southern California Poll with Saddleback College. Hancock is tied with Saddleback for 15th in the State Poll.
Hancock is on a nine-game winning streak and 10-3 overall this season under head coach Scia Maumausolo. "I'm extremely proud of the progress of these young ladies. They are just starting to reap the benefits of their hard work and it's fun to witness," said Maumausolo.
Hancock has knocked off five ranked teams this season, including Riverside College on Tuesday 2-0. The Tigers are ranked 9th in the state and fifth in the regional polls this week.
The Bulldogs host LA Valley on Thursday, Feb.27, at 2 p.m. The game will take place at the Hagerman Sports Complex due to on-going construction of the team's home field on campus.
