All-Stars Update...

Zach has played two more games since the last All-Stars posting. On Friday night, Morningside (Zach's team) played against Headid (a Sioux City team) and beat them 12-5. Zach struck out once at bat, mostly because the other pitcher was a lot slower than what Zach is used to. He did manage to get a double and a single his next few times at bat. Two of Zach's friends on the team got home runs during this game, but we are still waiting for one from Zach!

Today, Morningside played Northwest (another Sioux City team) and this game was just miserable! We had them 10-runned by the time the 3rd inning started, but we had to play out the whole 5 innings... the final score ended up being 22 - 1. Zach got a single, a walk, and a double -- this last hit looked like it was going to be a home run, but it dropped just inside the fence out in center field! Darn it!!!

Morningside has one game left in this district tournament. Tomorrow night they will play against Lawton-Bronson. Since Morningside is the only team in this tournament that is still undefeated, there is a pretty good chance they will be playing in the Championship game on Wednesday night. Keep your fingers crossed!!!
