The 2026 Softball team will be posted here by 6 pm tonight.

Thank you to everyone who came out for tryouts this year. We had a large number of talented athletes, which made this a very difficult decision. I truly appreciate the effort, attitude, and sportsmanship shown over the past few days.

For those who did not make the team this year, please do not be discouraged. Keep working hard and continue to develop your skills — I strongly encourage you to try again next year.

If you have any questions or would like feedback on how to improve, please feel free to come see me. I’m always happy to help.

This year’s team includes a strong group of motivated and driven players. Please remember that making the team does not guarantee playing time. Positions and playing time will be determined by effort, attitude, and what is best for the team in each game.

Thank you again to everyone who tried out. I’m looking forward to a great season.

Congratulations to the following athletes who will be on the MMS 2026 Softball Team. I will see you at practice tomorrow.

1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22

FITNESS CLUB STARTS 9/25!!

Hi everyone!! I am so excited to start the fitness club back up this year. We will be playing fitness games, completing fitness challenges, and working out together! The second half of the meeting will be run similar to a gym class (games such as flag grab, pinball, and more).

REMINDER: We will meet every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 2:15-4. Pickup will be in the main lobby. If you signed up for other clubs in addition to this club, that is great! You are not required to come every time we meet!

Please email me if you have any questions! [email protected]

Welcome Back!

Students will be required to wear athletic attire (more details below). We may be inside or outside, so please make sure your child dresses for the weather.

All class information (Health and PE) can be found on Google Classroom. If you would like to keep track of due dates for assignments, feel free to explore the tabs on this page! Please email me ([email protected]) if you have any questions!
