Itās time to finally share whatās been on our heartsā¦
Over the past few weeks, many of you have asked about tryouts and whatās next for Vipers Fastpitch. And after a lot of thought, tears, and family conversationsāweāre ready to say it out loud:
Freddie, Pennelope, and I will be moving to Kentucky later this summer to be closer to family.
This decision has not been easy. In fact, itās been absolutely heartbreaking. Because what we built here wasnāt just a softball programāit was a family. When we first started this journey as Black Ice four years ago, we had no idea how much it would grow or how many lives would intertwine with ours along the way. What began as a small group of gritty girls who just wanted to play ball has grown into a thriving community of fierce, passionate athletes and families who have made this so much more than a game.
Weāve been part of something truly special hereāand we donāt take that for granted.
From the first lessons, to the wild tournament weekends, to the deep conversations in dugouts and parking lots⦠every moment has been a piece of our hearts.
To our Vipers girlsāpast and presentāyou have given us more than we could ever put into words. Watching you grow not just as players, but as humans, has been one of the greatest honors of our lives. You will always, always be a part of our story.
We know our leaving will bring changeāand change is hardābut we also believe it creates space for new growth. For new leaders to rise, new memories to be made, and new magic to unfold.
Alaska softball will always be home in our hearts.
With so much love,
Freddie, Jenna & Pennelope š

Bursting with pride over here! š¤šš
A HUGE shoutout to our 12U and 10U Vipers girls who are part of the Anchorage All Star team heading to San Bernardino to represent ALASKA at the Northwest Regional Tournament!! šŗšøšš„
Even though theyāll be missing our Alaska JO State Tournament, thereās no question they belong on that big stage! These girls have poured HOURS into this gameāearly mornings, late nights, endless reps, and relentless practice. That kind of work ethic doesnāt just happen. Itās earned. And itās carried them all the way to California! šŖš¼
Theyāve grown stronger, tougher, and more confident with every stepāand now they get to show the rest of the region what Alaskan grit really looks like. š¤
No matter where this journey takes them, our Vipers Family is cheering LOUD from home! Keep playing with heart, keep trusting your training, and keep making Alaska proud!
Letās go Anchorage!! Letās go Alaska!!

This Memorial Day weekend was more than just softballāit was deeply personal. Hosting a tournament in honor of my dad, Gregory Lee, was incredibly special. He was the kind of man who wouldāve been at the fields all weekend, watching every pitch, cheering for every girl, and making friends with every family!
We felt his presence in the sunshine, in the cheers, and in the joy of the game he wouldāve loved so much. Thank you to every team, player, parent, and volunteer who helped make this weekend unforgettable. Your support honored his legacy in the most beautiful way!
We miss him every dayābut this weekend, we celebrated him exactly where he wouldāve wanted to be: surrounded by community, competition, and the game he loved!
