The UPGSL is a proud supporter of the Upper Perkiomen School DIstrict Middle and High School Softball Teams.  Throughout the years, the league has helped the UPHS Teams by providing equipment, uniforms, and field maintenance.

In 2015 an opportunity came about for the UPGSL and the UPHS Alumni to join forces to support the current players of the UPHS Lady Indians.

It all started in 2015 with Coach Jana Swenk Elixson and her Lady Indians teammates & friends.  This was the year that the simple idea of an Annual Alumni Game Fundraiser became a reality.  A facebook page was established -  https://www.facebook.com/groups/1535768970017196/ - and the first call to all former players to reunite for a cause was sent out.

The response from the former players was overwhelming!  From as far back as the 1980s to players who had just graduated from Upper Perk -- they all rallied around the idea of reuniting for a day of softball, to catching up with old friends and reminiscing about high school days, to making new teammates, and the chance to help the current crop of players working their way through the middle and high school softball programs.

Congratulations

to the

Upper Perk Lady Indians

on their amazing season!

The Lady Indians road to the state championship was cut short Thursday afternoon in Lyons.  Facing the Slaters of Bangor High School, the team rallied back from a 4 run deficit to tie the score in the fourth inning.  However, it wasn't meant to be.  The Slaters' bats came alive in the top of the seventh inning to bring in four more runs that the TRIBE - used to the harder / quicker pace of the PAC 10 pitchers - could not match.

Cheers to the Lady Indians --

on an incredible regular season Frontier Division Title,

to a 2nd place Finish in the Pac-10,

the history making win at Districts

and of course, their first ever trip to States.

We look forward to seeing where next season will take you!!

 The Upper Perk Lady Indians are battling their way through the brackets . . . .

The Tribe earned first place honors in the newly formed Frontier Division of the PAC-10 League with an impressive 14 wins and 3 losses for the season.

In the Pac 10 Championship Game held in Spring-Ford, the TRIBE finished with an amazing 2nd place behind the Perkiomen Valley Vikings in a tough matchup..  Final score was just 2-0.

Moving into District Play, the Lady Indians faced their Frontier Division foe - the Pope John Paul Golden Panthers and won with a score of 10 - 6. 

In District One Championships, the Tribe faced defending champs Villa Maria.  In a hard fought battle, the Tribe came out on top and became the District One Champions for 2017 4A Softball.

The Tribe is now embroiled in a battle for the State Championship Title.  Tournament play begin on Monday June 5th at Methacton High School's softball stadium against the East Pennsboro Black Panthers -- 3rd place finishers in their District 3 tournament.  Although the Panthers held our Tribe to just 7 hits in the game, the Tribe was able to capitalize on some plays -- a wild pitch, a long sacrifice fly, and a walk; their perseverance led them to a 3 - 0 victory and their first PIAA State Tournament win in school history.

Their next challenge will be on Thursday June 8th against the Bangor High School Slaters.  Game Time is 1:30 pm at Lyons Ballfield, 110 Park Avenue, Lyons, PA.

Another big night for the TRIBE will be the Graduation of fie (5) of its varsity starters:  Carly Bernhart, Kourtne Buck, Sarah Heidler, Emily Moll, and Olivia Young.  Congratulations on your High School Graduation!!
