Juneau, Alaska (KINY) - The Crimson Bears softball seniors will take the last swings from their home plate tonight at 7:30 p.m. on Melvin Park Field, a year too late for those who lost last season to the coronavirus shutdown, and way too early for the current crop of players that still have to deal with the pandemics lingering effects.
Mackenzie Jackson can play infield and outfield and will attend Boise State University to study the criminal justice system.
“One thing I have learned about the season is how much I missed playing as a team,” Jackson said. “I really miss that, the team like the family unit type thing.”
