Argentina Exhibition Game

The Lightning would like to thank the Argentina National team for visiting Coldwater on June 10th. Argentina won the exhibition game by a score of 6-1. There was a nice crowd at Waterworks Park and they got to see some quality fast pitch softball.

We would like to thank SpeedshifterS Wheel Club, Coldwater Family Dentistry, and BluFish Consulting for helping to sponsor this event.
