RIO LINDA, CA — The Rio Linda High School community is buzzing this week following a dominant performance by the Lady Knights softball team. Representing the school with distinction, the team secured a tournament championship in Fresno last week, extending an impressive winning streak that has seen them outscoring opponents by nearly double digits on average.
The Fresno run featured standout performances from key players like Izabella Moen, who recently notched a career-high four RBIs in a single contest, and Kiera Waggoner, who has been a force on the mound. The tournament victory serves as a testament to the hard work of the athletes and coaching staff, firmly establishing the Knights as a formidable contender in the Greater Sacramento League (GEL) this season.
As the softball team looks to carry that momentum back to local dirt, the rest of the RLHS athletic department is entering a packed mid-April schedule. From the links to the pool, here is what is on the horizon for our student-athletes this week:
