Our Masterpiece Game! This is what GREAT looks like

Saturday March 21st marks the high-water level of our season so far. The Storm girls brought their "A" game - and played about the most flawless game a team can play. Here is what perfection looks like.


1 - Our girls were focused during warm ups.

2 - This is what great defense looks like:
a -We recorded 7 outs by fielding plays cleanly on defense.

b - Our pitchers threw 5 innings of shut-out ball giving up no runs!

c - Our catcher threw out two base runners.

d - Our right fielder threw out a runner at first base.

3 - This is what good offense looks like:

a - We had 10 clean hits.

b - We paid attention to signs and stole bases like crazy.

c - We caused our opponents to make errors in the field by grabbing extra bases on infield singles.

d - We did not swing at bad pitches - and got lots of walks.

All of our girls deserve credit because they have worked very hard, remain teachable, and are extending great effort. As a result -they played up to their potential!

Live action March 13 & 14th

Practice and Game vs. Gold diggers

Sierra shows us how to run!

For our second game we had a lot of Storm girls get to third base...unfortunately not all of them made it to home :) .

Here Sierra shows the perfect two moves when on third base. 1st - she is in the running position - ready to push off the base when the pitcher releases. 2nd - She has run down the line - and her right foot is right where coach John drew a line in the dirt - she is looking at thte catcher - and ready to run. PERFECTO!

Our First Game

On Saturday February 21st the Mighty Storm played their first game - and did fantastic. The Highlights:

1 - Quality at bats by the entire team (i.e. - good swings at good pitches - avoided swinging at junk).

2 - Heads up defensive play including three double plays.

3 - A Home Run by Molly.

Goals for our next game

1. Making better contact with the ball (keep eyes on the ball).

2 . Learning signals for stealing and baserunning.

3. More cheering and vocal support for teammates.

4. Better attention and focus warming up.

Coach Denny Cooks up a Storm

Recently Coach Denny invited Coach John over for a little bbq. As a public service we wanted to show everyone exactly how dangerous it is to eat steak with coach Denny. Consider yourself warned.

PS - The Fire department was able to save most of Denny's house - and the Mortons steak was still fantastic!
