Alyssa RayBY HENRY HOUSTON
While attending Lompoc High School, Ray was appointed to All-League every year she played softball. After graduation, she began to play for Allan Hancock College and, following her first season with the team, was distinguished with an honorable mention in the West State Conference. Ray has also been more than impressive in the eyes of her coach, Scia Maumausolo. “She’s spunky, aggressive, and doesn’t like to lose,” Maumausolo said. “She’s just what we need on the team.” Ray, now the appointed team captain and shortstop, is looking forward to the first game of the season, which will pit her against Foothill College in San Luis Obispo. The Bulldogs have never played Foothill before, but Ray has high hopes for the team. For the future, she’s planning to attend Northridge to get a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts, and she aspires to play softball on that school’s team. After college, though, she yearns to coach softball—following in the footsteps of her father, who coached baseball. |
