Youth Spotlight: lady Little Leaguer Kamryn Downey
The future of Lady Raider softball is in the hands of the players at the youth level, learning the skills and techniques needed to succeed at the next level, as well as developing the competitive spirit that will help them continue their rise as they get older. With more emphasis in the county on the success and progress of softball teams in the county, extra effort is spent on the youth softballers as they move through their earliest experiences of competition. One of the young players working through that system is Rice Little Leaguer Kamryn Downey who has been participating in youth leagues since she was eligible to compete. 06/21/2023 12:00 AM
