Four key players are returning this year, Amanda Badertscher, third base; Amanda Jones, center field; Denise Van Rijst, catcher and Jessica Sowell, first base. Badertscher batted .379 in 2007 and earned 48 RBIs. The Lady Highlanders return home on Friday, Feb. 13 for a doubleheader against Middle Georgia College. Game one begins at 2 p.m.
