Crossroads Softball 2007

Spring is almost here and so is softball season. Games start Monday April 23rd. Hopefully everyone has managed to stay in top shape over the winter and will be ready to play this spring. If for some reason you have not, now is the time to start running, hitting and lifting weights. One of the biggest goals this season is to take all the games against OC Silver. The other goal is to have fun this season. New for 2007: 12 more cowbells (that makes 24!) for our SUPERfans!

1st Place!!!

Last weekend, August 5th, a few guys from the Crossroads softball team and a few from Silver, joined the Red team to play in the tournament in Appleton. Their record for the day was 4-2. They took 1st place in the tournament. Gabe bought an extra box of cowbells for the event. Some of the cowbells were mishandled but all were returned and are usable for next year. The cowbells, or the red team, were responsible for 3 known finger injuries.

Make-up Game

The game against Life Church that was rained out earlier in the season is scheduled for July 31st at 7:15pm. Unfortunately, this is the last game of the season. This softball season was much more exciting than last year. I would say the only low point of the season was dropping 2 to Silver. That still hurts. Any comments on the season or any ideas for next year?

Yet Another Double-Header

Tonight we have yet another double-header. This one is against Life Church who we have not played yet. This should be the end of the double-headers and the rough part of our schedule. After tonight we will have played 10 games already. Life Church always has alot of fans that come to their games, so SUPERfans, you will need to be extra loud. For it will be a battle of fans as well as teams. (if that statement was redundant, whatever. I'm in a hurry). The cowbells will be brought.

Players be ready to compete because LC is not an easy team to beat. They have a very solid defense, so we will have to earn our hits. And their bats can put some over the fence. Defensively we will have to be even more solid than they are. Make proper throws, no dropping pop-ups, backing each other up and communicating. If we put together a New Life type of game and get them on their heels early, we should never look back and take both games from them.

Thats all for now.
The Coach
