Summer Co-ed Softball in Kirkland Sundays

The 4:30pm game gave So Fresh and So Green something they haven't run into very often....a very competitive game! As So Fresh and So Green squared off against Thick Sticks it became obvious very early in the game that these are two very quality teams. Both teams flashed the leather in the field and had impressive moonshots and frozen ropes from the plate, but it was So Fresh and So Green's own Neta Fischer who helped provide the difference in this game. Neta had a great day from the plate with some timely hitting including a beautiful triple! She also had 2 great slides in the game as she showed off her wheels and aggressive base running! Congratulations to So Fresh and So Green on a hard earned 12-8 victory and to Neta Fischer, this week's Player Of The Week!!

Missy is player of the week. She hit well both games. Pitched a great second game. Hard an incredibly hard line drive hit at her on the mound, got her glove on it, knocked it down and made the play at first.

Well this was finally it....the inaugural Underdog Softball Championship in Kirkland! Taking the long route to reach the Championship game was #3 seeded Thick Sticks as they had to play 3 games in one day including the Championship game. First they had to get past The Joint, no easy task by itself. Next they had to take on the #2 seeded Franks and Beans, where their bats came alive and their gloves kept the game out of reach. Finally, at the Championship and facing the powerhouse #1 seed So Fresh and So Green, Thick Sticks were able to jump out to an early lead and never look back. Combining power hitting and aggressive base running, Thick Sticks were able to outlast the late inning surge by So Fresh and So Green. Most notable was the 'all around hustle' of Thick Stick's captain, Tucker Ludy, as he combined timely and well placed hitting with some playoff caliber base running. Congratulations to Thick Sticks on their impressive 13-10 victory and to Tucker Ludy, Player of the Game!!
