Honored to have known Glenn on and off the field. He will be dearly missed and mourned not only by our Lasers family but the Ohio softball community in its entirety. 🫶🏼
With heavy hearts, Ohio Lasers Fastpitch shares the passing of Glen Widner, our Vice President, Recruiting Advisor, coach, mentor, and dear friend.
For many years, Glen was an important part of our organization and the heartbeat behind so much of what made Ohio Lasers special. His commitment to our athletes went far beyond the field. He believed deeply in helping young women grow not only as softball players, but as confident, prepared, and resilient people.
Glen gave countless hours to our organization, always willing to guide families through the recruiting process, support coaches, encourage players, and offer his wisdom wherever it was needed. His presence carried weight because it was rooted in genuine care, honesty, and a true love for the game.
His impact reaches generations of players, coaches, and families who were fortunate enough to learn from him, compete for him, and simply know him. The softball community has lost a respected leader, but his influence will continue to live on through the many lives he helped shape.
We extend our deepest sympathy to Penni, his daughters, grandchildren, and all who loved him. We are keeping the Widner family in our prayers and stand with them during this difficult time.
Glen’s legacy will always remain part of Ohio Lasers.
