Softball - Varsity Girls'

Currently one of the most successful programs in New England, Westminster Varsity Softball has won 11 Founders League titles and 9 Class A Western New England Championships since 2007, while achieving a record of 222 wins and 25 losses during that time. The spring of 2023 marked the 17th consecutive year Westminster qualified for the highly competitive Western New England Tournament as one of the top four Class A teams.  
 


Westminster softball players have gone on to compete at D3 and D1 schools including Bates College, Bowdoin College, Brandeis University, Bryant University, Cornell University, Georgetown University, Hamilton College, RPI, and Wesleyan University.
 


The spring of 2024 will mark the 20th year Westminster Softball has traveled to Orlando for preseason practices and games. Upon returning from Florida, the Martlets play a strong 18-game schedule including contests against Class A opponents Choate, Deerfield, Loomis Chaffee, Taft and Williston, as well as Class B teams such as Cushing Academy, Ethel Walker, Kingswood-Oxford, and Suffield. The Westminster team plays on a beautiful field constructed in 2008.
 


Head coach Mitch Overbye and assistant coach Nicole Garcia run the program. Mr. Overbye has been at Westminster since 1999, and has also coached numerous travel and town teams. Ms. Garcia's previous experience includes successful years coaching softball at Suffield Academy.
 


With this dedicated and enthusiastic staff, the team is well prepared each spring for a challenging and rewarding softball experience.
