This was our first official tournament in Utah this season. We finally are having spring like weather after what seem to be a very long winter. Although the nights were still very cold.
Eventho this was a 12u tourn, they didn't get a good turn out from 10u so there were several 10u teams playing as well. In our pool we had 10u Rampage, 10u Hives and 12u Thunder Sandoval. We won both pool games but only winning with a score of 1-0 vs Thunder. Yikes.
Bracket play started at 930 Satirday morning which meant we had to be there at 815. My least favorite part of softball lol. Girls were playing and beating teams like Gforce, Ice, Thunder and advancing to the championship game against Spanish Fork Inferno. We were undefeated so Inferno had to win twice to be Champs.
First game had us taking an early lead. Girls were doing well. But so did Inferno .. They passed us up hitting the crap out of the ball. We had to play catch up and just couldn't pull it out. Final score 9-8 Inferno. Now on to the IF game we go. This time they take an early lead. At the final innings and our last bat and chance to win.. 2 outs and an attempted 3rd out and Inferno leaves the field and celebrate their win. However their suppose 3rd out was called safe and as Inferno is off the field looking confused as to what is going on, Alyxx runs the bases and scores the tying run. Which was protested and later ruled good. So now on the international tie breaker. We are home team they are up to bat with runner on second. 1 and 2 out walk the next batter now they have 2 on base. Last out strikes out and it is now our turn. Mora is on base for our team. 1 out, walk, walk, walk, bases loaded Oaklee is up. Hits a good one to LF that is caught 2 outs. Ashton up and gets walked and in walked the winning run of the night and the Utah Hot Shotz are the tournament CHAMPIONS...yay!!!!
So proud of these girls and coaches. Well played team.. Big shout out to our (in the park) HOMERUN hitters of the tournament ASHTON, HUNTYR and KEISHA .. Hot Shotz Hoorah!!!!
