Why this matters in The Midland
The promotions of Angel Castro and Liv Garza within Midland College's athletic department mark a significant shift in leadership for the Lady Chaps. Castro's move to assistant athletic director not only brings a successful coaching tenure to a close but also introduces a fresh perspective to the department's administration. Her experience and achievements as head softball coach will likely inform her approach to supporting coaches and student-athletes across various programs. Meanwhile, Garza's appointment as head softball coach presents an opportunity for continuity and growth, given her involvement in the team's recent successes. As a former assistant, she has already established strong relationships with the players, which could facilitate a smooth transition. The fact that Castro is a female athletic director at this level is also noteworthy, as it reflects a growing trend of increased representation in sports administration.
