The softball season for our 2 daughters was FANTASTIC this season! Rachel, in the above photo (Yup she's the catcher!), finished the season in 1st place 11-1. Then we learned she was picked to represent Hyde Park girl's softball in the tournament for 9 & 10 year olds in Dutchess County. The lost the first game then went on a 6 game win streak to make it to the finals, where the lost a heartbreaker.
Emily's season was one game better then Rachel's, Yes undefeated 14-0! They won the division and Emily received a trophy. Em pitched 2 innings in the final game of the season and got the win. She was also picked for the Hyde Park All-stars in the 11-12 league. She was brought in to pitch with a 1 run lead and the bases loaded in the bottom of the 6th, she struck out the batter for the save!
