GIRLS SOFTBALL | Varsity

The Girls Softball Program at Providence Catholic provides an environment where students will learn commitment, passion, pride and trust.  We will provide an opportunity for all players to receive quality instruction and to play excellent competition. Our program is based on the core values of Hard Work, Loyalty, Dedication, Unity, Respect, Competitiveness and Passion.

We currently field a JV Team and a Varsity Team.  Jay Biesterfeld enters his 15th season as the Head Softball Coach at Providence.  The current staff includes Jim Holba (Asst Varsity), Lauren Schwartz (Asst Varsity), Dawn Gura (Head JV), and Amanda Wilson '13 (Asst JV).  The goal of our lower level programs is to prepare as many players as possible for a future on the Varsity.  It is only through hard work and 100% effort that this can be accomplished. 

Providence Girls Softball competes in the very competitive GCAC.  We face top teams like Mother McAuley, Montini, Trinity, and others. 

Over the past 14 seasons we have had girls go on to play at the collegiate level for many different schools.  That list includes the University of Arkansas, DePaul University, Florida Atlantic University, Oklahoma State University, Lewis University, Saint Leo University, Colgate University, Olivet Nazarene, Eastern Illinois, Carthage College, Lawrence University, St Mary's University, Lake Forest College and many others.
