Skyhawk Softball Coaches
Head Coach Robert (Bob) Lowe
Bob Lowe begins his second year as head coach of the
SVCC Skyhawks softball program. Coming off of
last year’s record of 35-12 and a national ranking he intends to keep
the Skyhawks on a program of success.
Under Lowe last year the Skyhawks also won the tough Arrowhead
conference title and the regional
tournament. That regional tournament was the catalyst for Lowe receiving Region
IV A Coach of the Year. The challenge is on now as this year's squad has only
four sophomores but Lowe believes the entire team is up to the challenge.
Lowe has over a decade of softball fastpitch travel ball coaching experience and eight years of high school coaching for both girls and boys. Several of his girls fastpitch players have gone on to play college softball including all three of his own daughters.
Lowe and his wife Camille, have four children, Carin, Colleen, Rebecca, and his son Daniel. Lowe is alumni of Kishwaukee College, SIU Carbondale and NIU College of Law.
Assistant Coach Sophia Aponte
Sophia Aponte former Skyhawk left fielder begins her first
year as assistant coach of Sauk Valley Community College's Softball team.
Since the game is still very fresh in my head I feel like I will be able to mentally and physically help prepare the girls for a successful season. I have also learned a lot for Coach Lowe and will be able to help enforce and push the fundamentals of the game.
I hold an Associate’s degree in Arts / Science and am looking to get a Bachelors in Dental Hygiene.
I look forward to working with the girls and assisting Coach Lowe with another winning season.
