🥎 HISTORY MADE 🥎

The Lady Panthers Softball Program has made history today with its Senior Class of 2026!

For the first time in school history, FIVE members of a single graduating class have signed to continue their softball careers at the collegiate level - the most in any sport in LCHS history!!

Congratulations to:
🥎 Kylee Hanson – North Georgia University
🥎 Tessie Tinch – Pellissippi State Community College
🥎 Kymbal Williams – Daytona Beach Christian University
🥎 Abrianna Baker – Bryan College
🥎 Reagan Helton – Bryan College

This group has left its mark on our program in countless ways. They have broken records, tied records, raised expectations, and helped lead LCHS Softball to its first Sub-State appearance in more than 20 years.

More importantly, they have represented our school, teammates, coaches, and community with pride.

We are incredibly proud of these young women and grateful for the legacy they leave behind.

Congratulations on this well-deserved achievement, and we can't wait to see what comes next!

Lenoir City Lady Panthers Softball is thrilled to announce Anna Marie Stooksbury Lewis as the new assistant coach. Coach Lewis contributed significantly to the foundation of the current program as a student-athlete, and we are excited to welcome her back as an assistant coach!

While attending Lenoir City High School, Coach Lewis (Stooksbury) was a standout athlete for the Lady Panthers Softball Program. She finished her high school career with a .408 batting average and .493 on-base percentage while recording 130 hits, 20 home runs, 122 runs scored, and 106 RBIs. She was known for her consistency at the plate and ability to make an impact in key moments. She also maintained a .917 fielding percentage throughout her career. Coach Lewis earned team MVP (four years), All-District (four years), All-County (four years), and All-County Player of the Year (2 years).

During college, Coach Lewis played softball at Lee University (2 1/2 years) and at Faulkner University (2 1/2 years). She also played golf at Faulkner (2 1/2 years). Lewis made the 2024 Champions of Character Team, as well as, the 2023 and 2024 Barnes & Nobles College All-Academic Team.

Coach Lewis has developed a strong background in coaching. She was the golf graduate assistant at Faulkner University, Florida Vibe travel coach (1 season), North Middle assistant coach (1 year), and softball instructor/private lessons.

Change is part of every season, but some people will always be part of the story. Coach Stephanie Eubanks is one person who will remain part of the foundation of the LCHS Softball program. As Coach Eubanks steps into a new chapter, we want to take a moment to celebrate the impact she’s had on LCHS Softball and her dedication to the program and student-athletes the past 5 years.

Coach Eubanks brought a balanced presence to our program that supported hard work and emphasized integrity. She believes in doing the right thing and working hard even when no one is watching. Coach Eubanks was foundational in teaching players that every position and every player mattered in reaching the end goal of growth. A culture of doing whatever it takes developed under her leadership.

Our pitching program changed significantly with Coach Eubanks' input. Pulling from her past experience as a pitcher, she focused on developing improved communication between pitchers and catchers while teaching the art of selecting pitches. Our pitching and catching staff work completely differently than they did 5 years ago, and that growth is a significant contribution from Coach Eubanks.

On the lighter side of things, Coach Eubanks always found a way to rally the team with fun antics like double sunglasses, upside down visors, and sometimes carrying a giant bag of chips at first base during a JV game. Coach Helton and his wife, Jessica, and Coach Eubanks and her husband, Stephen, will always share the memory of the best 3rd Saturday Night in October in Vols History and a love for Dixieland Delight.

Thank you, Coach Eubanks, for all the ways you have contributed to our program and supported the young women who have played from that first team in 2021/22 to this team in 2025/26. Your LEGACY is special and we promise to continue on with your work!

We love you!!!

What a great season!

We would have liked for it to last a little longer, but these young ladies racked up 20 wins and landed 3rd in a district that LC previously finished at the bottom.

All of this is a testament of how much the program has worked to grow and be competitive! Watching this team play was SO fun!

KNOXVILLE — On Monday, May 4, the Lenoir City Lady Panthers defeated the Bearden Lady Bulldogs 10-8 at Bearden High School during the 4A-4 District Tournament.
