Lindsay went 7/10 at the plate with a double, a triple, 2 runs, 4 walks, and 7 RBI. Her defense has been solid at first base all season, only committing 4 errors in over 100 chances in the field. She has asserted herself as a great team leader! Congrats #10 @softball_oc
Finished a great week of softball with an excellent practice with some special guests, and finished with some ice cream from Schools Out Ice Cream! #gocougars@AthleticCougars
As an AD, I often reflect on championship teams. Some had all the talent in the world and didn’t win, while others with less found a way to finish the job.
The difference is rarely just talent. It’s the teams that play for each other instead of their own highlight film or personal agendas. The ones who stay for the full game, not just the 25 minutes that make social media.
Championship teams spend time together, pull for each other, hold each other accountable, and consistently put in the work. Not skip practice or have other personal obligations that take place of their commitment they signed up for.
Sometimes it’s a talent issue. But more often, it’s a culture issue.
We are thrilled to celebrate two outstanding individual performances:
Mila Boucher fought her way through a competitive bracket to take home 2nd Place.
Faith Young secured a 3rd Place finish—an incredible feat considering this was her first-ever wrestling competition!
