Posted Apr 12/10 - Mission Icebreaker

 

Sunday, April 11

Day 2, Game 1.....it was a nail-biter!!!  End of the 1st inning and the score was 2-0 for Ambition.  End of the 2nd....5-2 for Black Ice.  End of 3rd....7-5 for Ambition.  Then the Black Ice players dug in their heels.....Carly hit a double with Karley and Lilian on base to score 2 runs.  Jayden was patient at the plate and drew a walk.  The score was tied with Carly stealing to advance to 3rd base. Then Stephanie saved the day with a single to score Carly from 3rd!!  Final score...8-7 for Black Ice.  Amazing!!!

Game 2....not the result we wanted.  It was our one and only loss with a score of 6-4.  The Mission team had great sticks and managed to pull out the win.  Black Ice did struggle back to close the gap in the score but the clock ran out.  Good game!!


Overall result....3 wins and 1 loss.  Kudos to the pitching and catching staff....you gals must be tired and sore tonight!!  And to all of the players....such a good effort.  Each and every player had at least one GREAT moment during the weekend.  What an amazing start of the season we have had.   The coaches see good things in this team's future!!  Rest and ice your sore muscles tonight!!

Thanks to all of the parents who made the weekend a success by helping with coaching, organizing and score keeping....Ken, Mike, Paul, Maureen, Marjorie, Rosalind...and others who I may have not mentioned.  Thanks!


 


Saturday, April 10

Holy cow...what great first day of the ball season!!  The Mission ball park was hard to find and the weather was chilly, but the results were HOT!!!

The dynamic duo of Karley and Magena impressed players and parents alike with some very strong pitching.  Each pitcher threw a whole bunch of strikes.  And any time they were down on the count, they struggled back to save the inning.  They showed amazing confidence and improvement in their skills....including impressive fielding from the mound.

Also....good effort behind the plate from Kiesha and Jaden.  Great outs at 1st base from Emily and Leslie.  Great plays at 2nd from Stephanie and Maddy.   Great hits from many....including Jayden P., Maddy, Kiesha, Magena, Emily and others.  And Jaden C. laid down a textbook bunt with bases loaded.....great squeeze play J.J.!!  Great focus and leadership from Carly and Lilian.  And....all around....great heads-up base running!!

See you bright and early tomorrow for DAY 2....can't wait!!!
