Two National Championships and a Runner-Up finish...
not too shabby for this historic @TrineSoftball senior class.

The Thunder fell just short in their title defense, but leave the record books forever changed.

QUEEN OF THE HILL 👑

Debbie Hill shatters @TrineSoftball's all-time HR record with her 6⃣3⃣rd long ball in her college career 💣

Hill also sparks an 8th inning comeback to help Trine avoid elimination in the D3 tourney with a win over Rochester!

[Andy Brown @TrineVoice]

We have a new @TrineSoftball home run queen! Debbie Hill hit her 63d career home run to surpass Kaylee Fox’s 62 hit from 2015-2018. Hill’s homer helped Trine erase a 4-run deficit to beat Rochester 10-6 and advance to the regional championship round Saturday at 11:00.
