Megan Engelhardt signs to play softball with Lyon College in Arkansas

Pinckneyville senior Megan Engelhardt has signed an Athletic Letter of Intent to play softball for Lyon College in Batesville, Arkansas, starting with the 2021-22 year.

Engelhardt, an All-Conference infielder as a sophomore, helped the Panthers to their second place state tournament finish in 2019 before losing her junior season to the COVID-19 shutdown last spring.

At PCHS, she is secretary of the Beta Club (Honor Society) and plans to major in political science at Lyon College, an independent (private) liberal arts college. For Megan, law school is a possibility after her undergraduate years.

The Lyon College Scots are part of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and play in the American Midwest Conference. The school emphasizes athletes as "Champions of Character, On and Off the Field."
