Gahanna Lincoln Roundup: Lions softball seniors grow into leaders ThisWeek group Becoming a leader is something Gahanna Lincoln softball player Dani Shoulders expected to be a challenge this spring. One of four seniors in a program that features a talented sophomore class, Shoulders gained experience as a sophomore in 2019 when the Lions went 17-10 and reached a Division I regional semifinal. One of the things she missed out on when the 2020 season was canceled was the opportunity to see last year’s seniors provide guidance to younger players. But with the postseason approaching, Shoulders has found her voice as a leader and is happy to shoulder the load. ....

He’s technical but he uses some high-amplitude moves that get people fired up. I don’t think he realizes he does, but he does,” Oney said. “That’s how he practices and competes.” Gomez smiled at the suggestion but shrugged it off while crediting his success – and any drawing power – to a change in approach. ....
