Varsity Softball girls end season short of playoffs

Softball brought its season to a close, along with many of the CP sports. Lead by Coach Cami Jenschke the girls were one game away from playoffs in this year’s season.
“The hardest part about the season was the fact that we started district with three straight losses,” Jenschke said. “We knew we were playing the best teams in the district right at the beginning but it’s sometimes hard to bounce back from a 0-3 start.”
Though their season may have not gone as they hoped, the girls enjoyed a season full of great teamsmanship.
“The team dynamic was very open and friendly,” junior Lindsey Buggi said. “We made a lot of jokes and spent a lot of time laughing to keep our spirits up.”
The relationship and the work the girls put in this year may have been even more important than their district standing.
“To get that far it took a lot hard work and dedication,” junior Skylar Cooper said. “Every player was very supportive of each other and positive on and off the field, making this season unforgettable.”
This year the team was also able to make it out the the annual Corpus Christi tournament.
“One of the best memories I have is at the Corpus Christi tournament,” Buggi said. “During one of our games, I stole second and the catcher overthrew the throw, so I stole third.”
While the tournament went well for players making risky moves like Buggi, it was less than awesome for others.
“My worst memory was definitly our bus getting broken into” Cooper said.
Through the ups and downs this season has thrown, the girls managed to make it a great season full of love, hard work, determination, and of course, softball.
“My season this year was full of determination,” Buggi said. “It made me realize what I want to have and that I have to go and get it.”

A lot of people care about [this show],” Morneault said. “I have a lot of friends on the cast and on the crew, but I’ve also grown and gained friendships through the show, even as director where I may be a little more stricter than normal. And I am very grateful for everyone I’ve gotten to work with.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/DSC_0657-1200x800.jpg)

Kato’s painting is a political piece inspired by a photo of elementary schoolers in the street protesting against ICE. “I think it's also symbolic because they're surrounded by snow, which can represent ICE, and they are still marching,” Kato said. “[The kids] are not stopping until equality or justice is served, which I think is really important to represent and show.” Photo by John Pinion](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Screenshot-2026-03-26-114740.png)

Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)

The varsity baseball team played in the bi-district round of playoffs against the Boerne Greyhounds April 30-May 2, where they won Game 1 6-4, lost Game 2 2-1 and won the last game 5-2, allowing them to advance to area. “Honestly, [my favorite] big moment that wasn't even part of my moment was Dom's grand slam,” Cuevas said. “That was a big game changer in Game 1 of round one that ultimately helped us win that game and even move on. It set the tone for the games after and has really impacted and sparked this whole playoff run.” Photo by Allie Tseng](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/allie-boerne00159-1200x800.jpg)

Hill rushed for three touchdowns in the 43-36 loss against Frisco Wakeland last Friday, but the Timberwolves were eliminated from playoff contention. “[I’m] just happy I got to experience the game with my brothers,” Hill said. “I’m going to remember how close and how enjoyable everything was with these guys. They are my brothers for life. Just waking up and grinding together, and proving the naysayers wrong [was my favorite part].”
