Good morning gentlemen, and welcome to another season of March-Westin softball.

After a very successful fall season MW returned to the diamond to face Granite Concrete in their season opener.

Team cement put up an impressive first inning as they quickly solidified a six run lead. But MW bounced back in the seconding inning, putting on a scoring streak of their own to bring the scores back into balance.

Both teams then seemed to unable to find their offense in the middle innings, as neither were able to put together a rally. MW however had the veteran leadership of Nick who refused to watch his team go down without a fight, echoing out such words of inspiration as “remember how you didn’t get a single hit during the first six games of last season? Let’s not do that this year.” That combined with brilliant coaching strategies from Coach Tom such as “let’s hit the ball tonight”, its unfathomable how this team could lose.

And lose they would not, just as all great military leaders know what it takes to get their men ready for battle, these words of wisdom were exactly what MW needed. MW responded by showing more aggression on the base pads which seemed to rattled the defense, quickly causing team sandstone to crumble.

MW would go on to score a devastating seven runs in the top of the 7th inning, winning by a final score of 18-13.

Wimer and Jared were a combined 10-10 on the night.  Tom “Felt good out there.  Fast, full of energy”, which I know I will sleep better knowing.  And Dave’s batting average remained at .000

Tonight MW faces longtime rival OJ White at 8pm.
