12U Gold Win 14 - 4 Over the Mokena Storm

Saturday the wind was screaming out towards right field, the 12U Gold faced off against our rivals from the south the Mokena Storm. Rachel pitched her way out of a jam in the 1st inning and then the Gold's bats warmed up. A great bunt from Sarah and some timely hitting from the middle of the line-up plated 4 runs in the first. Megan caught the entire game and kept the baserunners from getting an extra base. The entire lineup contributed with doubles and a triple. Allie had a big 2 out single that scored 2 to seal the deal. Sarah & Kathleen finished up in relief and held a tough Storm team to only 4 runs for the victory.

Next weekend - Elmwood Park Tourney 18 teams A & B

The new game time is 2:00 PM on Saturday for our game versus the Crete Crush. Here are the directions to the game on Saturday….Game starts at 2:00 p.m. I want the girls there by 1:00 p.m. We will be wearing our gold uniforms (I want to have the black ones for Sunday).
Take 80 east to 394 south. Take that to Exchange Street and turn right (West). Follow that into town. One block BEFORE the stop light in town is Wood Street. Turn North on wood street. You will go one block and you will see the school on the east side of the street. Go past the school and there is a one lane road just past the school. Turn east and follow that to the fields. There is a parking lot right by the fields.
