[ First RINGS, First PLACE. LADY JACKETS ]
After last weekend’s finalist finish, these girls were hungry for more—and they went and got it! Going 3-1 and finishing FIRST among seven teams, our Lady Jackets are the End of Season Bash Tournament Champions!
Thank you to TVA Maine Mizuno 10u, a familiar opponent from our 8u days, for inviting us out to Warrenton, VA. We knew this field would challenge us, and that’s exactly why we wanted in. There’s so much to gain from stepping outside your local competition and seeing how you stack up.
The day started with back-to-back pool games and a tough 4-8 loss to Coastal Breeze 2016, a bigger, older and more experienced team. But the girls shook it off and went straight to work against our hosts, TVA Maine Mizuno. Harper was lights out in the circle, allowing ZERO hits and ZERO runs, every girl reached base, and Kalesia launched her first home run of the day!
Finishing pool play 1-1, the girls earned the #4 seed in the GOLD Bracket, setting up a showdown with #1 seed Manassas Calvary. And our girls came READY. A 12-1 WIN punched their ticket to their second championship game in two weeks! Gisele led the RBI count, Kalesia delivered HOME RUN #2, Harper and Haven each went 3-for-3, and Isabella added a 2-for-2 performance with multiple RBIs.
Then came the rematch: Coastal Breeze 2016.
With Harper rolling, we gave her the chance to bring it home, knowing Haven was ready if needed. The girls struck first with two runs in the opening inning and kept the pressure on. Isabella led the way 3-for-3, while Gisele, Harper and Kalesia each drove in multiple runs. Sadie, Charlie, Kenzie and Sophia all reached base, and Minnie, June and Haven showed patience at the plate, getting on and coming around to score.
Under the lights, the girls sealed an 11-5 WIN over the team that beat them that morning—and brought home their FIRST championship rings!
Four games. One long day. A whole lot of growing up on the field. These girls took an early loss, made adjustments and came back ready to finish the job. Every single player helped bring this one home, and we couldn’t be prouder.
Up next: one final week of the fall season and the CML Fall Tournament. Let’s finish strong, Jackets!
