Singular sensation Sowa ready for the next stage Jun 6, 2013 12:00 AM
She has yet to swing at a college pitch, and hitter extraordinaire Megan Sowa is already 1-for-1. One request. One request granted. Jersey No. 1 for Warren’s softball team each of the last three seasons, the senior center fielder will keep the skinny digit on her back when she heads to Drake University to play Division I softball next year. “At Drake, I’m going to be (No.) 1, too,” Sowa said. She wore her favorite number well for the Blue Devils. From the No. 1 spot in the batting order, she was the catalyst for a team that was, for the most part, the No. 1 team in Lake County for most of the season. With the lefty-hitting Sowa batting a team-leading .513 with a hefty 27 extra-base hits, Warren won 27 games before bowing to the host school in the Class 4A Barrington supersectional. A three-time all-area player who last season set a school record with 65 hits, Sowa captains the Daily Herald’s Lake County all-area team this spring.
