MITCHELL — After four seasons as the head softball coach at Dakota Wesleyan University, Marie McCarthy-Foster is leaving the university, athletic director Curt Hart announced this week.
McCarthy-Foster, who started at Dakota Wesleyan prior to the 2007 season, is moving to her home state of Michigan with her husband, Jason Foster, who took a job there. She will be staying in Mitchell until mid-July to help with the search for a new coach, which Hart said will begin immediately.
