Washburn softball team clears snow for Sunday and Monday games in Gahnstrom Field
TOPEKA (KSNT) - The Washburn softball team was scheduled to play in the Emporia State Classic this weekend. Because Emporia State was not able to clear their softball field in time to hold the classic, they asked the Washburn softball team if they could move the classic to Gahnstrom Field on the Washburn Campus.
"We were supposed to go to the Emporia State Classic this weekend. They had so much snow they couldn't get their field ready and asked if we thought we could get our field ready to play Sunday and Monday." Brenda Holaday, Washburn University Head Softball Coach.
"We are working hard to get ready for that. The schedule for Sunday, there will be games here at 11:00, 1:00, 3:00 and 5:00. On Monday there will be games at 10:00 a.m., 12:00, 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m.
"The opportunity to play at home is always exciting for us."
