BlueJays take 2nd place

It's been a long, but fun-filled baseball season for Manning & his fellow BlueJays. At the beginning of the season not very many of the kids knew each other, some couldn't make contact with the ball, some could barely throw, but by the end of the season a collective team effort took this team to a 2nd place finish.    Out of 9 teams only the top two finished with medals and we were one of the fortunate teams. We finished off the season with a win on Wednesday night against the Mudcats and then led us into yet another game on the same night against the Angels, who were undefeated all season. We took them to extra innings, but they won the game by 1 run. The boys played their hearts out, the coaches did what they could and it was a great championship game.

BlueJay cookies after game #1!

I lost KU only to find her hanging with a big circle of older kids, just blending with the rest of them.

Game #2


And Cheerleader KU found a mud pit, got completely wet and then rolled around in the dirt on the ball field, making for a ghostly complexion. She literally looked like a ghost, but her smile was all worth it. She is kinda like pig pen from the Charlie Brown gang.
