Last week of March

Hello All,

We have just finished up the last week of March. Due to the snow and rain we encountered on our trip back from Georgia, our game for Tuesday, March 26 was postponed until March 28. We also had our game for March 27 postponed to the 1st week of April. So that left us with 3 doubleheaders in a row starting on Thursday.
We had to travel on Thursday ( about 45 minutes south ) and we split the doubleheader. The first game we didn't play well at all. I thought maybe we were still in the van and hadn't gotten off of it yet. We regrouped though and played very well the 2nd game. There were lots of positives the 2nd game. We made some really tough plays, hit the ball well and pitched well.
I will have to say that this team really loves music. On the way down, the van was full of athletes singing. At the ballgame, it continued in the dugout. I love to see the smiles on the faces of our athletes. I love to see them have fun because isn't that what softball is all about. Softball isn't just about the way we play. It's about getting to know your teammates. It's about being there for each other. It's about working with people for a common goal.
We had to play Friday and Saturday at home and those games didn't go well at all. We did have great weather compared to some days. We had some people play well but we have yet to reach that point where everyone plays well together. I know it will come some time this season. I just don't know when that will be.
Until next time . . . . . . GO SQUIRRELS!!!!!!!
