     The Daytona State College Women\u2019s Softball season has come to a sudden halt due to the coronavirus, known as COVID-19.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n But up until then, they haven\u2019t been doing their best. As it stands, \nthe Falcons\u2019 overall record stands at 9-17, with a team batting average \nof .316, 139 runs, and 12 home runs. The team was trying to bounce back \nfrom last season where they finished barely above .500 at 23-22, a team \nbatting average of .302, 259 total runs, and 48 home runs.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

     In Motion was in contact with Coach Keli Harrell via email and asked how her season has been affected.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n \u201cUnfortunately, COVID-19 has resulted in the NJCAA suspending our \nseason, along with all other spring sports,\u201d wrote Harrell.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n The season is on hold until further notice and DSC has cancelled \nsporting events on campus and moved classes to online-only indefinitely.\n The team now has time to recuperate and Coach Harrell and returning \nplayers can plan and rest for next season.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n \u201cWe were definitely looking forward to some much-needed rest, due to \ninjuries. However, we are disappointed our season ended prematurely,\u201d \nsaid Harrell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

     What is DSC doing for Falcon athletes as the sports world is grinding to a halt? Coach Harrell fills us in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n \u201cOur team has been tested, surely, because COVID-19 is unlike anything \nwe have ever experienced. There has been a ripple effect across the \nsports world in terms of cautionary measures taken.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n Unfortunately, Coach Harrell is right in saying that her season is \nindeed over, along with all other spring sports here at DSC. However, \nthe preparation never ends and the team\u2019s energy will go into staying \nhealthy for next season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n \u201cWe will take the field next season with a renewed sense of \nappreciation for the opportunity to play softball,\u201d says Harrell.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
