Saturday’s games were unfortunately canceled due to rain, but the girls made the best of it! Another hotel night turned into team bonding time with shopping at the Galleria Mall, swimming, and hanging out together at the hotel. These memories matter just as much as the softball. ❤️

Congrats to our 2 MVPs of the tournament
1. Vayda Lindsay- a strong performance both offensively & defensively. She put the ball in play 10 out of 13 times at bat including a home run- & walking once.
Defensively she is our go to girl. Standing her ground leading the field from short stop, filling in as catcher, and dominating at 3B. Theres not a spot on the field she can’t play & we are grateful to have such a powerful utility player & leader on the team.
2. Chloe Allen- From a home run to a very strong defensive performance, Chloe was locked in & did a fantastic job whether she was in CF - giving coverage on 2B, as well as her strong performance at SS, where she was snagging hard hit balls & using that powerful arm to throw to 1B for outs! Way to go Chloe Allen!
🥎🇺🇸🥎🇺🇸
The girls also got to enjoy time together at Niagara Falls, making memories on and off the field. ❤️
So proud of this group and how much they continue to grow every single time they play together!
Thank you to all of our families for the support, travel, and dedication this weekend!
