Shaler softball coach cautious despite returning nine starters

Shaler softball returns nine starters from last season's 15-4 team, but coach Tom Sorce remains cautious about their potential. The team aims to improve daily and will rely on experienced pitcher Bria Bosiljevac, who has committed to Indiana. The Titans face a competitive Section 1-5A, including teams like North Hills and Fox Chapel. Sorce noted a strong preseason with high turnout, leading to tough roster cuts. He believes the returning players have improved their hitting compared to last year. Shaler's roster includes key players like catcher Alyssa Schaffold and shortstop Jayla Antomachi. Sorce mentioned young players are pushing for playing time, indicating a mix of experience and youth on the team.
