10u Desert Falls - St George

Can you tell we have softball fever?  Never can get enough of balling.  It was originally planned that Mesquite was the last tournament for the season.  Last minute some parents wanted to do St George.. So on to St George we went with most of our girls..

There was a total of 9 teams there.  Director hadoriginally said 15 teams were coming.. IDK what happened to the other teams.  But Angels '01, Predators, Hive, Nationals, Voodoo, Avengers '01, Evolution, Revolution and BOOM all showed up to play.

It was nice that it started later in the evening so most of us didn't head out til Friday morning.  The weather was pretty nice as well.  Still very cold but no rain or snow.  Yay!  We had a pretty easy pool but you still don't wanna underestimate any team.  We won those games and played our first bracket game against Angels which we loss 2-1.. :(  Still good that they kept them at a close score. 

We battled and played our way in the losers bracket and met up with Angels again.  Angels is up the most of the game.  Time expired and we are the home team.  We battled and scored.  Bases loaded.  Mary hits one over 2nd base head and score 1 to tie the game.  Yay.. Daisy takes a walk and in walks the WINNING score.  Oh yeah.. we going to semifinals.  And who against, our nemesis Hive.  haha.  Girls are just pumped and on fire after beating an older team.  And they definitely didn't dissapoint in semi's vs Hive.  We were up the whole game.  Bubbles and Aubrey helped by both hitting HR's this game to keep us ahead.  By the time of the last inning, the score was 8-4 and we won.  fair and square and they couldn't protest a dayum thing.  The coach tried to question the speed up runner.. but really does that surprise you.  They couldn't question/protest a dang thing like he always tries to do.  its really quite obnoxious and hello.. how long have you been coaching..hahaha.

Well by now it is about 1030 and we going into the championship game.. like WTH, it was scheduled to finish at 730 haha.  It is freezing cold.  so cold it felt like my legs are frost biten. hhaha. We played Predators.  All i know is we loss 4-1 but we so dang proud of the girls.  Predators has been blasting on teams this whole tournament by double digits.  Even after playing all day long and being hungry and freezing cold BOOM held this team to only 4 points.  We couldn't be more proud.  It was a great tournament and what a way to end the season.  They definitely did not disappoint.  Second place is just as good.  BOOM!!!
