The William Penn softball team is gunning for a second straight post-season trip this spring. Penn opened Midwest Classic Conference play with a doubleheader sweep of Grandview on Monday and coach Mike Christner says his team has been struggling at the plate in key situations.Christner says while they expect to make a run at another conference title, going unbeaten will be extremely difficult. Pitcher Kellie Armstrong has led the way with an earned run average under one, but Christner says pitching depth is a bit of a concern. Penn returns to action this weekend in a tournament at Grinnell College.
