Last night we hosted our first-ever **Highland Softball Alumni Game**, and it was a tremendous success! This was really a trial run. We've talked about hosting an alumni game in the past, but it never seemed to come together. This time, we decided to keep it small and not promote it publicly so we could see how everything would work. The result? An incredible evening filled with great softball and lots of laughs. We received so much positive feedback that we already know this is something we want to continue in the future! If you're a **Highland Softball alum** and would be interested in playing in future alumni games, please reach out. We'd love to add you to our contact list so we can keep you informed about upcoming events. Next time, we'll be sure to promote the event and invite the entire community to come out and enjoy the fun. A special thank you goes out to Highland alum **James "Flopper" Garner** for volunteering his time to umpire the game. We truly appreciate his support! It was a great night to reconnect, celebrate Highland Softball, and remember what makes our Cougar family so special. **Once a Cougar, Always a Cougar!** 🐾🥎
