CTYSA High School & College Players
CTYSA has been the starting place for many local high school athletes, college softball players and even professional softball players.
This section of our web site features former CTYSA softball players who have continued to play at the high school & college level. We will update the site as we get players. If you know of a player who played into high school and beyond whose name is not listed, please e-mail me @ cprrs@aol.com and I will ensure we add all players to this list who should be. It is a work in progress.
Congratulations to all of the players who have their names on this CTYSA "Wall of Honor."
