@mcdowell_ms With muddy conditions these girls played their cleanest game of the season. Solid defensively all night! 0-0 game in the 4th and BC opened the door just a bit and the Braves pounced and made them pay! Great way to cap off the season! Lots learned! Proud Coaches!
Last practice of the season was fun competition day! Congratulations to the skill winners! Homerun derby winner: Kayleigh Adams. Outfield winner: Chloe Karshner. Infielding, Throwing Accuracy and base running winner was Cassie Gaskin! @mcdowell_ms @8thsoftball
Super proud of these @8thsoftball ladies! SUCCESS is a piece of mind which is a direct result of self satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best you are capable of becoming - John Wooden #RaiseTheBarEveryday#ItsAprocess
Love this drill @8thsoftball it's always a strike until it's not! Gotta be ready to smash at all times! If we hold, reload for the next pitch. Repeat as often as necessary to #HitBombs
Our own @sydneyreeser going yard! Weight back timing foot down and locked allowing a powerful rotation toward the ball. Palm up palm down thru the zone and working toward full extension. Good mechanics + bad intentions = positive results. Softball or baseball #HitBallHardUWin
Great team win tonight ladies! Everyone contributed! Pounded out 15 hits against a pretty good pitcher along with clean defense and heady base running equals Victory. @mcdowell_ms
Way to get back on track tonight! Quality win against a good BC team. Making some defensive plays, good hitting and great base running! #GottaSlideThough
Players: You have to get out of your comfort zone to be challenged. Being challenged builds toughness. Great teams aren’t built by coaches who are soft on players who just go through the motions. Great teams/players are built by leaders who constantly push & challenge players.
Players: It’s hard to appreciate the people who push you the most, but eventually you realize the impact they made in your life. When coaches/teachers/parents hold you to very high standards, it’s because they care & want you to succeed. Translate that into reaching your dreams.

Lady Braves beat Fairfield Union tonight 8-6. It was a great defensive game and King picked up her first league win. Hitting was led by Lear with 3 run HR and 5 RBI and Porter with a HR. Parsons made an unbelievable diving play to give us two outs in the 6th. Keep it up!!
