Ankeny Softball Player One Home Run Away From State Record

One swing of the bat is all it could take for Ankeny's Kendyl Lindaman to earn a state record.

Lindaman, a softball player for the Hawkettes, hit her 23rd home run on Monday night, according to the Des Moines Register. This is one shy of the state's all-time single-season record, the article said.

Lindaman helped lead the Hawkettes to a 13-3 win over Waukee. 

The Hawkettes play again Saturday. They'll take on Ames in the varsity regional tournament, which starts at 7 p.m. at the Ankeny High School softball fields.
