⚾🥎 HCC Summer Baseball & Softball Update 🥎⚾

We’re excited to get our Summer Baseball & Softball season started here at HCC!

We wanted to give everyone a quick update that we are a little delayed on getting rosters out due to extending registration past our initial deadline to allow more players the opportunity to join.

We are currently finalizing rosters and getting all coaches set for the season. Rosters will be sent out by Friday, and practices will begin the following week!

Thank you all for being so patient and understanding throughout the process. We truly appreciate the support and can’t wait to see everyone out on the fields this summer! ⚾☀️🥎
