Spring Sports Halted: PCC Softball's Upswing Not Fully Reached In Abbreviated 2020 Season

On March 7, the Pasadena City College softball team stood 11-9 overall and a game out of second place in the South Coast Conference race. The Lancers were poised to make an annual push to reach the Southern California Regional Playoffs. But instead of getting ready this week for postseason play, PCC can't even physically meet as a team as its 2020 season was cut short due to the worldwide health crisis.
