Schenevus, Cooperstown players
make All-State softball teams
The 2021 All-State team for softball honored a trio of Schenevus players, two players from Worcester and one player from Cooperstown and Morris.
The Dragons won the Section IV Class D title for the second time in school history, and first time since 1978. It was also the first time since 1995 that a team other than Afton or Deposit won the Section IV Class D softball title. The Dragons beat Marathon, 7-1, in the title game Friday, June 11, in Schenevus.
Schenevus senior shortstop Hannah Osborne led all area players, making the first team in Class D. Osborne plans to play college softball at Cobleskill.
Her fellow senior, Cassie Snyder, made the second team, and sister Sam Osborne made the third team for Schenevus. Snyder, the Dragons’ pitcher, plans to play college softball at Wells College.
Worcester, which lost to Schenevus in the Tri-Valley title game/section semifinals, placed senior pitcher Delimar Vega-Haley on the third team and senior fielder Lily Conroe on the fourth team.
Morris eighth grader Hannah Wist, a pitcher, made the second team.
In Class C, Cooperstown sophomore Dani Seamon was named to the third team. Seamon played third and pitched for the Hawkeyes, who lost to Pulaski in the Section III Class C championship.
