Freshman Baseball Continued...09

A great season with Freshman Baseball.  We were the 2nd place team of the season games and won 3 tournament games.
We lost Caleb McKray in the first tournament game against Westlake.  He broke his index finger and had to have 25 stitches.  He was pretty much our only catcher and he was awesome.
It was a rough start in the tournament, but the boys battled back and played amazing defense!
This was after the win against Salem Hills.

We had some really great coaches!!  They worked hard and gave their all!  Payton really had a great season especially defensively.  Great job, Payton!!
