CHAMPIONS!!!

What an amazing season for the Red Raiders!! They came in 2nd place for the regular season- having only one loss to a GREAT team (the Troopers.)  Seriously they are hard core.  So this week we've been in the 6U tournament!  After a semi-finals win this morning- we moved on to the championship game against the Troopers (literally 15 minutes later.)  I'll be honest, I thought there was no way we'd even be able to keep up… especially after just having played a full game.  WELL- I was wrong.  The Red Raiders played their hearts out! 

Going into the last inning, we had to hold them at no runs- which we have never done.  But guess what?  WE DID- sending us into an extra inning…. and then another!  And then with one out and the tying run on 3rd (that would send us into a 3rd extra inning)- we got a double play to end the game!  Winning 21-20.  

Seriously you would have thought we had just won the world series with all that screaming!  It was a phenomenal day- so proud of these boys.. especially mine!  Austin has made such improvements this year!  I can't wait to see how he does in the fall!!



I love the expressions on their faces- Andrew, Austin, and Matthew

"Mommy, I got TWO trophies!"

Very proud Daddy
