Though snow might be blanketing the campus, it’s not stopping preparations for the upcoming Mount Ida softball season, as the Mustangs are ready to take on another challenging 40-game regular season slate under the watchful eye of 12th-year Head Coach Katie Zuman.
Mount Ida begins the 2018 campaign on Sunday, March 4th in Clermont, Fla. against St. Vincent and St. Elizabeth to kick off eight contests at The Spring Games, as the Mustangs will also tangle with Bridgewater State, Pitt-Greensburg, Monmouth (Ill.), Mount Union, Ursinus and New England College. Zuman’s crew will open their Northern slate with a Saint Patrick’s Day twinbill at Wentworth, and Mount Ida will begin both its home and Great Northeast Athletic Conference schedule on Saturday, March 24th against Albertus Magnus.
The Mustangs will also host Newbury, Anna Maria, Saint Joseph (Conn.), Dean, Lasell, Suffolk and Norwich on the friendly confines of the campus Softball Field, while Mount Ida will travel to Wheelock, Saint Joseph’s (Maine), Simmons, Rivier, Regis, Johnson & Wales and Emmanuel for doubleheader action during the regular season.
