Statesville expects lots of homers at new ‘launching pad’

Statesville debuted its new softball field April 29, the Greyhounds’ next-to-last home game of the season. With the help of West Iredell, they christened it by sending three balls over the outfield fence.

Statesville sophomore Megan Bustle smashed two of the home runs, one of which nearly reached the tennis courts.

“She tatered that one,” coach Bobby Morrison said.

The outfield wall is 200 feet all the way around on most high school softball fields, but Statesville’s measures 195 feet, Morrison said.

“It’s going to be a launching pad,” he quipped.
