Young women can enjoy the fast-paced excitement of fast-pitch softball on the freshman, junior varsity, and varsity teams. It’s a close-knit team with plenty of camaraderie and a focus on developing skills and teamwork. All games and practices take place behind Padua Franciscan High School. The Bruins  won a District Championship in 2002 and were District Runner-Up in 2003.
