Wheeling, W. Va. - Coming off their Florida trip in March, things were riding high for the Wheeling University Softball team as they sat 7-8 overall and were ready to open Mountain East Conference (MEC) play with momentum on their side. While things may have not turned out the way they planned, it was a year of growth for the Cardinals as their younger players continue to gain experience on the field. Along the way, the team hit several milestone moments in players careers that helped fuel the team and bring them closer together.
