Muhlenberg Job Corps softball team setting the standard for their Conference

Muhlenberg Job Corps softball team finishes the season undefeated in the conference play this season. When Cody Perry, the Director of Center Life and MJCC head coach, was asked what he thought about this season, he said, “I’ve been blessed to be the head coach at the MJCC for the last 8 years. I’ve worked hard on and off the field with my student athletes to build this program into what it is today. We’ve won our conference championship six years in a row and that’s due to the approach, we, as staff, take at the Muhlenberg Job Corps Center with all our students. We teach our students to be more concerned with their character because it is who you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are. This year’s team has focused on being a team on and off the field, always lifting each other up, not allowing negativity between themselves, and hustled to fix mistakes. I am proud of these students and all that they have accomplished on the field, and what I know they will accomplish beyond Job Corps. “

Michael Voss Job Corps student and softball teammate stated the thing he liked about this team is that whether you have played sports or never at all, this team embraced everyone as they got better.  Muhlenberg Job Corps would like to thank the entire team and staff for their dedication to the season. Working hard, along with working on soft skills, can definitely pay off in sports and in life.
