The Atlantic Softball Hall of Fame induction festivities were hampered a bit by the weather on Monday but other arrangements were made. Kristi Wright (1978-81) was inducted into the AHS Softball Hall of Fame in a ceremony that was held at Nishna Hills Golf Course clubhouse on Monday night. Wright was part of the 1981 squad that won a conference title and she was named Elite Special Mention All-State that season. Wright was a three time all-conference selection and went on to continue her softball career at Crowder Community College in Missouri and then on to Northeast Louisiana.

The ceremony was originally scheduled to be held between the JV and Varsity games against Harlan but the game was moved up on Monday due to rain in the forecast. A number of past players also gathered Monday evening for an Atlantic Softball reunion.
