ND CO-ED SOFTBALL LEAGUE


The 2014 Capital Alumni Network (CAN) Co-Ed Softball League season is now in full swing. Though we have a core group that has played for several years, we are always looking for new faces who like to play some ball and drink some beverages. Jimmy and I are both getting up there in years and life experiences, so fresh legs are always good to have on "diamond" aka the rocky patch of grass near the Washington Monument. If you have a glove, and/or like drinking beers mid-week, then you qualify! For more information please contact coach Jimmy Mandich '02/'03 MSA at jimmymandich@yahoo.com and Brandon Lenk '06 at brandonlenk@gmail.com. Go Irish!
