Cloverdale senior Martika Byrd signed her letter of intent to play softball at Lincoln Trail College in Illinois. Head coach Rachael Killinger believes Byrd's leadership ability will be a nice asset for Lincoln Trail College. "Tika's ability behind the plate is pretty impressive. She has a strong arm and a strong sense of leadership that you need from a catcher. She brings a strong and consistent bat, and with graduating our two leading hitters she will be able to step in and help fill that void," Killinger said
