COACH’S COMMENTS
“… After a long season the only game that matters is the next one and this win put us in the region tournament. It was good to get Allie Triplett back in the circle and she never missed a beat. Shelby Blevins came in to throw the last inning and did a great job. Very proud of these two youngsters. Can’t say enough about this team. They don’t give up. I would like to ask the community to join us in praying for Halli Caudill’s quick return to the team.”
