Ackerman signs with Mobile
The University of Mobile softball will need to reload for the 2009 season, with 8 seniors on the 2008 roster; and the Lady Rams took another step in doing that by inking Grove Hill's Tess Ackerman for the 2009 season last Thursday. Ackerman played softball and volleyball at Clarke Prep School and is looking forward to joining a championship caliber program. "I really liked Coach (Terri) McCormick and she made me feel real comfortable," Ackerman said. "They have a very successful program with a national championship, and I'm looking forward to being a part of that." The middle infielder qualified for the State Softball Tournament all four years at Clarke Prep, and won the State Championship in volleyball each year. The past two seasons, Ackerman was named All-State in both sports. In softball, Ackerman has been named the team's best infielder, MVP and captain. She also won the MVP award for volleyball and was named MVP of the Volleyball State Tournament this past season. Here Ackerman, seated center, signs with her parents Scott and Wendy Ackerman as Mobile Coach McCormick and CPS Coach Billy Hamilton look on.
