Notes

First Place

Softball - Thursdays (Spring '16)

The "Bench Warmers" are our Thursday Night Softball League champions following a great championship night of games!

After taking a win in their first game of the night, they awaited the winner of our matchup between the #2 "Pitches Love Me" and #3 "Cherry Poppers." Seven innings wasn't enough to separate these two as the game went to extras. In the eighth inning "Pitches Love Me" was able to grab the lead and would eventually win by the final of 10-8, sealing their position in the championship.

The championship game was the third time these squads met this season. The first two matchups during the regular season resulting in close, one-run wins for "Bench Warmers" which may have given them the psychological edge in this

The final started off with both teams battling for supremacy with "Bench Warmers" snagging a 3-1 lead after one. From there the game turned into a defensive battle with neither team able to get any more runs. That was until "Bench Warmers" picked up three more insurance runs in the final inning. By the end they were the champs and took the crown after a 6-1 game.

Once again, congrats to "Bench Warmers" on their championship win!
