The LVSSA Board of Directors approved the purchase of a softball bat tester at the February 2025 Board Meeting. The bat tester was ordered on February 20th from the same vendor that SSUSA uses. The bat tester was delivered on March 11th. Scott Carr has started the testing and he was at Lorenzi on Saturday, March 15th. Scott and Mike Hula tested over 125 bats. Most bats tested in the 150 - 175 range which passes SSUSA's 140 or more limit (note: any bat testing below 140 is deemed "illegal").
Thanks to Scott, Butch Kocher and Mike Hula!

Our insurance company has now stepped in to pay for the defense of the lawsuit. Insurance counsel has taken over and will be zealously defending us. Last week, the Judge conducted a hearing on our motion to dismiss the entire case; and on our second motion to dismiss the individually named board members/officers. We are awaiting the Court’s decision and will be working with the insurance assigned counsel.
