The Upshur County Special Olympics softball team racked up the hits recently to bring home the Division II gold medal from Charleston.
The team competed in the Summer Olympics Games in a double elimination format and played neighboring Barbour County for the championship game, according to director Susan O’Dell. The final score was 23-12.
The gold medalist team had 10 athletes, including some competing for the first time, and five unified partners. To gear up for Special Olympics, team members practiced twice a week for two hours each. Brian Cole is the head coach of the team.
The softball team traveled to Charleston with the Upshur County Special Olympics group — once again having the largest delegation. There were 42 athletes, six coaches and eight volunteers. Track and field, swimming and bocce were also included in the games.
As a county director, O’Dell was a sports event supervisor for these games. |
