Comments from Coach Tom Williams
Game 1
Russell 3
RCHS 1
We played alright in game one but need to find a way to light a fire and get going when we need to. Darsha bechard pitched well again with 6 K and 2 BB. From the plate Brooke Melton hit well going 2 for 3 and Kora Bergstrom went 1 for 3. Hitting is contagious and we just didn’t get it started. We look for our top three hitters to get us going and their pitcher did a nice job keeping them in the dug out.
Game 2
Russell 12
RCHS 6
Erica Hadachek started on the mound for us and did a nice job. She is improving every outing and that is all we ask from her. Courtney kasl came in and pitched as well as she had, but Russell just kept hitting little dinks here and there that we just couldn’t get to. I was pleased with their efforts and they just have to realize sometimes you do everything right and it just doesn’t happen the way you had dreamed about it. From the plate Courtney Kasl and Miranda Cottenmyre hit 500 we just couldn’t string a lot of hits together. As I said earlier hitting is contagious and Russell found that out. Little dinks that just happen and in our case it really hurt us. No one really got a good bat on the ball just little base hits in bunchs can get you a lot of run.
Over All
Over All we played well just didn’t get our offense together. Our best defense to date but need to put a complete game together. We are playing tough teams early and we understand. We are competitive but we really need a victory or two to get us fired up. It will come in time with hard work and a little extra effort on the field. Both coaches believe in this young team and know that by the end of the year we are going to be a tough out for anyone. The future is look good for this team and we are excited for them.

Defensively the girls are playing alot better. Errors are something you have to cut out to see where you are at and they are doing better there. Hitting and putting hits together is very important- the Lady Buffs are out hitting our opponents but can't get them all together. Being competetive against good teams is good but the want for more (for winning) needs to start coming through. Look inside yourself and be the best self you can
