Which would you like first?
The good news?
Great!
Last weekend, The U12 Urbana Hawks team clinched the U12 46-60 District Title...they lost in the first game to Emmittsburg 5-0...it was a tough loss, but they came back fighting. In the second game the Hawks beat FBA 9-0...Connor threw a complete game shut out with seven strike outs. This qualified them to skip the semi finals and go straight to the championship game as the #1 seed. They once again found them selves facing Emmittsburg and they came out CHAMPIONS!! They won 4-3. Their story was in the Frederick News Post...it was a big deal for their head coach :-) and for the whole team!!!
OK...so for the not-so-good news?
Connor's team's run for the State title ended today...and needless to say, I've got some broken hearts in my house tonight. Connor's team won three games Friday and Saturday to qualify for the semi-finals today...and although that mohawk was INCREDIBLY intimidating...it met it's match today on the field against CCYL. Our Hawks lost 10-5...it's not how any of us wanted to see the season end, but the boys really should be holding their heads high. This team came a long way, and we're all so very proud of them.
I'm sure this will surprise all three of you who read this, but...
we'll be back on the ball field next weekend!
Jake's State Tourney is in Southern, Maryland...
so 'til then...
