Answer 1

Answer:

Our school’s softball program has a tradition of excellence

Explanation:

A topic sentence refers to the most significant sentence in a paragraph. It is a sentence that summarizes in a brief the main idea of a paragraph

Option 1 speaks only about the coach, it  says nothing of the team. Hence, it is incorrect.

Option 2 speaks about how the team won one game (the final), it does not describ the team much. Hence, it is incorrect.

Option 3 speaks about only three of the players on the team rather than the entire team. Hence, it is incorrect.

Option 4 speaks about and encapsulates the whole team. Hence, it is the right choice for a topic sentence about a school's athletic team. 

Answer 2

I would say ether B or D. But the main answer I do prefer you choose is "B"
Because the answer "D" needs a sentence behind it to introduce the athletic team.
That is a improper way to start a paragraph up just by talking about your team. You need to introduce them first then start talking about what they did.
Answer: B!
