Kee softball senior Kendra Cooper was named to the Iowa Girls Coaches Association (IGCA) Northeast District All-District Team and All-State Softball First Team following the recently completed 2018 season.

She was also Kee’s leading pitcher with a 24-6 season record that included 169-1/3 innings pitched with 283 strikeouts against just 28 walks and an earned run average (ERA) of 0.74, pacing this season’s squad to a 35-6 season record and a fifth consecutive Upper Iowa Conference (UIC) championship, the softball Hawks’ third straight undefeated UIC title. This was Cooper’s fifth consecutive First Team All-State selection by the IGCA.
