[edit] Girls Softball
While Moline fields teams in more than twenty sports, the most prolific sport in the school is girls' softball. Softball has been an official sport in Illinois since 1976, and Moline has won the state title five times (in 1987, 1988, 1994, 1996, 2006)—more than any other school in the state. It also is one of four schools that has won titles in back-to-back seasons.
In the 2005–06 season, Moline won more games than any other school in the history of the state of Illinois without posting a loss, compiling a (40–0–1) record, and winning the girls' AA state title.[1]
