NPC co-ed softball team starts season 2-0

The National Press Club co-ed softball team won both games of its double-header Saturday, posting a solid start to the 2022 Metropolitan Media Softball League season.

In the sweep, each game was a close one. The scores in the inter-divisional games were:

NPC 9 NPR 8
NPC 13 CNN 12

The league said NPC has "the oldest active streak of making the playoffs," at 12. The team is .547 over the last five seasons.

Visit the MMSL Facebook page for more information about the rest of the games played Saturday.

NPC next plays on Saturday, April 30, at the Layhill fields. The 2021 league champ Alumni is the first opponent at 10 a.m. Then at 11 a.m. Big Blue takes on the Discovery team.

Supporters are welcome to come out and cheer and enjoy an early morning outdoors in a rural setting. Stick around for the victory celebration at a nearby water hole, too.
