Battling a Top 10 Team

Our Fillies softball team started district play Saturday with a matchup against Slaton.  I’d read enough on Terry’s Sports Page to know that Slaton was pretty good.  I mean they have been flat out wearing some teams out!

I found out Saturday Slaton is ranked in the top 10 in the state.  Wow.

And our Fillies were within a 4-3 score going into the 7th.  Slaton plated two in the top of the 7th but we came back to get 1 of our own in our half.  It was a good softball game.  We came up on the short end of a 6-4 score, but our girls played a top ranked team toe to toe.  This should tell those girls they can flat out play.  It’s only the first district game, so it’s very encouraging to see them perform at this level.

Way to go girls!

Next game is Tuesday 3/24 at Idalou at 5pm.
