Softball preview: New coach starts Addison Trail's rebuilding process

Mark Olson leads Blazers into season with just three seniors

ADDISON — First-year coach Mark Olson is trying to inject some life into a program that has struggled in recent years.

Olson, who previously was a Willowbrook football head coach, has a young team in his first year in charge. The Blazers have just three seniors on the roster.

"We are sophomore and junior dominated," Olson said. "I think that works both ways. I think that works well for the future, but at the same time we’re young. We’re going to be playing some older kids while being young.”
