STATE SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT

Lucas "watching" Nappy play ball!
(In Hurricane - playing North Sanpete)




Wow! It's hard to believe Jess has played her last game as a Bear River Bear! It was the state softball tournament in Spanish Fork this past weekend. We played Hurricane Thursday and lost by 1 in the 9th inning - heart breaker. The girls were just so nervous in that game. We had to play again right after that and beat Uintah 5-3.
Friday was a huge day - 3 big games - Union, (11-0), Juan Diego (9-3), and Canyon View (4-2). The girls played so well that day. (Juan Diego is ranked #2 in the state and Canyon View beat us earlier in the season). That put us up against Hurricane again on Saturday to get to the final. We ended up losing 2-3 - bigger heartbreaker! We had beat Hurricane (10-4) earlier in the season but just couldn't get past them down there. We took 3rd place which isn't too shabby in the state tournament.
Lots of tears were shed as it came to a close for those Senior girls and their teammates (and parents!).
Katie and Jed live close to the ball park so that was nice to stay with them. Lucas had about had it with ball games by the end! He was a very good boy most of the time.
