Cimarron-Memorial 2013 Softball Capsule

Head coach: D. Steve Gorden, ninth season

2012 record: 14-14 (8-8 Northwest)

Returning letter winners (starters): 10 (Six)

Top players: CF/2B Sarah Murphy (Jr.), SS/C Sarina Creswell (Sr.), P/OF Alexa Snyder (Jr.), 3B/SS Carli Stafford (Sr.), 1B/OF Kayla Johnson (Sr.)

Outlook: The Spartans welcome back six starters, including one of the area’s top hitters in Murphy, whose speed makes her a threat to score every time she reaches base.

Creswell has the potential to be a big-time run producer.

"We have five senior starters returning that will solidify us as a team," Gorden said. "We expect to make some noise in our league and earn our way to regional competition."
