Wolverines' last games set
as special event promotion
The last scheduled game for the Wesley Wolverines in the 2015 season, Tuesday, April 14, promises to be both “bright” and “electric”, while probably a late night affair.
Last year's Arcadia doubleheader was a special event, too. Besides being the final game of the season, the day also honored senior 3B Ashly Bendorovich's last game as a Wolverine. Here the team presents her with her #16 uniform framed. The Wolverines split the day, dropping the first game 6-3 but coming back with a 8-0 win in the evening contest. |
Second,the games are slated to begin at 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM, the latest start times for the Wolverines this year. It will be dark before the start of the second game!
Both games, however, will be played at a venue that will be plenty bright enough! That's thanks to newly installed field lights that just occurred last semester at Arcadia's Blankley Field. The infield also received upgrades this past summer.
The Wolverine game will be only the third softball contest held under lights at the refurbished softball field and the University expects to draw a large student crowd for it. The evening has been has dubbed: “Night Under the Lights”. Free hot chocolate and free glow necklaces will be given to the first 100 Arcadia students in attendance. Between games, two tickets to a Phillies game will be raffled off.
Blankley Field, Glenside, PA, will host the Wolverines this year with an evening named “Night Under the Lights”. |
Arcadia's head softball coach Sarah Norris said "Our team and coaching staff are thrilled to have new lights installed on Blankley Field for our upcoming 2015 season! Having the lights gives us the chance to host night games, which is an exciting and memorable atmosphere for our players and fans."
