Southington High School has named Kim Lynch as its new softball coach, bringing back a former standout player 29 years after she helped the Blue Knights capture a CIAC championship. Lynch, a Southington alumna, was officially appointed on Monday, November 9, 2026, and will take over the program for the 2027 season.
The hiring marks a full-circle moment for Lynch, who was a key contributor to Southington's CIAC title run nearly three decades ago. The Blue Knights are coming off a Class LL semifinal appearance in June 2026, where they fell to New Canaan at Biondi Field in West Haven.
