ROCK SPRINGS – A Lady Tiger will continue to play softball as a Lancer after she graduates from Rock Springs High School this spring.

Kyndall Turnwall committed to play softball for Mount Marty University in Yankton, South Dakota Monday evening, in a signing ceremony attended by friends, family and her coaches. Turnwall said she has a friend who attends the school and said she knows she will receive a good education from Mount Marty. She plans to study biology, saying she wants to become a doctor.

Turnwall has played softball since she was seven years old and said she enjoys it because it’s a sport she excels in and has always enjoyed the family aspect of a softball team. She said that family atmosphere is one thing she will always remember about playing for the Lady Tigers.

“We’re just a lot of fun,” she said. “It’s a good family environment.”

Prior to the start of her final year at RSHS, Turnwall said she has one goal for herself and the team: secure a fourth-place finish or better at state. The Lady Tigers took fourth during the state finals last year and Turnwall said she would at least like to repeat that feat.
