She’s back in business on the diamond.
Coupeville High School grad Sarah Wright got her junior season of college softball started in style this weekend, playing in four games for Sewanee: The University of the South.
The former Wolf and her Tigers teammates traveled from Tennessee to Georgia, where they faced off with Albany State University.
While Sewanee lost all four games, Wright piled up two hits — including a double — two runs, two RBI, and two stolen bases, while playing both catcher and third base.
The last two seasons have been shortened by the pandemic, but Sewanee has a full 38-game schedule set for 2022. Games run through mid-April.
Wright, who was a multi-sport star (volleyball, soccer, basketball, softball) and Valedictorian during her time in Coupeville, is majoring in politics.
Sewanee returns to action next weekend, Feb. 11-12, when it travels to Mississippi for the MUW Invitational.
Wright and Co. will play two games apiece against tourney host Mississippi University for Women and Covenant College.
