  2006 Highlights
2006 Lightning Intramural Rosters
Intramural All Star Games - New to the intramural program this year was a All Star game for the Thunder and Bolt Division. Both games were exciting, well played and the sidelines were jammed with fans. The Thunder Division winner was the Boomer Conference and Head Coach Chris Purcell. The Bolt Division Conference wining team was the Flash Conference with Head Coach Chuck Files. Special All Star shirts were given to each girl on the team and trophies were give to a MVP from each Division. Alison Horne was the Thunder MVP, and Laura Alderfer won the award for the Bolt Division.
Intramural Playoff Games - In the first year the playoffs for both the Bolt and Thunder Divisions were a great success. The Thunder teams competing were Chase Home Finance-Head Coach: Troy Marshall, and R & S Keystone-Head Coach: Chris Purcell. R & S Keystone took the Championship game 4-3 and both the Champions and the runners up received medallions for their efforts and great play. The Thunder playoffs were also highlighted by a 2 day-extra inning game between Landis Supermarkets Inc. and Ken Beer & Sons Excavating. The game started Friday evening and was suspended at about 8:45 for darkness with the score 5-3 in favor of Landis Supermarkets. Play resumed the following morning at 8:00 AM and Ken Beer & Sons Excavating came back to tie the game. After 1½ innings Ken Beer & Sons Excavating were the winners of the game 6-5. The Bolt playoffs were also a great event, with Brooks & Barber Tree Management-Head Coach Tom Labb taking on Bergey's Jeep-Head Coach Gary Derry. Brooks & Barber Tree Management went on to win the Bolt Championship after a scare in the last inning Brooks & Barber Tree Management had a 10 to 7 lead. Bergey's Jeep scored twice and made it 10-9. With a runner on third base and two out the batter hit a shot to the right of the 2nd baseman who caught it to end the game. Softball Commissioner Rob Martin had the Head Coaches call each of the players individually out to the mound to receive their medals. Brooks & Barber Tree Management was singing ‘We are the Champions” and took a victory lap around the bases. It was truly a "FANTASTIC" end to a GREAT season. Congratulations to all teams who participated in not only the playoffs, but the entire intramural program – you are all CHAMPIONS!
2006 EVERYBODY HITS - Once again this year Deep Run Valley Lady Lightning Softball offered the program Everybody Hits for all Special Needs Kids, ages 6-16. The program is a noncompetitive format with the emphasis on fun, and teaching the basic skills of the game! This program is offered as a community service and no fee was charged.
