Women's Softball >>
Welcome to Thunder Softball! Thunder Fastpitch Softball is one of the most exciting activities on campus. Each season we field a competitive team that plays in the Northern Division of the Minnesota College Athletic Conference. We have a proven reputation of attracting quality players, as well as a long list of student athletes who have achieved post-season awards, including NJCAA All-American team and NJCAA Academic All-American honors. The opportunity we provide to play competitive softball at a high level, combined with the excellent academic programs at our college, make Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College an outstanding choice for continuing your athletic and academic careers after high school. Each year we assemble a roster of about 14-15 student athletes. Head Coach Kerry Rodd has led the program since it started in 2008. Coach Rodd is a veteran fastpitch softball coach with more than 21 years of experience in the sport.
