They say it’s not the destination but the journey that makes a trip worthwhile, and nothing illustrates this better than the Pomona-Pitzer Sagehens women’s softball team. On the field, there’s no denying that the Hens were routinely overshadowed by their opponents, but off of the field, the girls had as much fun as any team.

The question of baseball predominance was answered in a three game series between Pomona-Pitzer and Claremont-Scripps-Mudd.

Nobody was going to give anything to either team and no one planned on going home embarrassed. It was one of those three game series that baseball was founded on. A late inning rally here, a two-hit shutout there. Kids asking for cracker jacks and old men whistling some crazy tunes.

The Pomona-Pitzer men’s tennis defeated rival CMS last Friday in the semifinals of the SCIAC tournament before losing to Redlands in the final. The Sagehens reversed their earlier 4-3 loss to the Stags by winning the last three matches of the day. This resulted in the Sagehens sharing second place in SCIAC.

The Pomona-Pitzer women’s tennis team looked to defeat CMS in the SCIAC tournament and retain sole possession of first place last weekend. On the first day of the tournament the Hens swept La Verne and Whittier. However, without injured star Sharee Schwartz ’02 the Hens fell 5-4 to the Athenas. Because Pomona-Pitzer won the regular season meeting the Sagehens and Athenas will share the SCIAC crown.
