I am bursting with excitement!!!! Want to play this up big and have balloons on the house, but also want to be humble. . .
Son's HS team has just won their first in the 50 yr history of the school Region Championship! Record is 19-5 (14-1 Region).
Double-header yesterday. First game 13-3, second game 10-2.
Zach pitched game two with 10 K's and NO walks.
Teammate broke school record for the most RBIs in a season and Zach broke the school record for the most runs scored in a career!
But, even more exciting and thrilling is the fun these boys are having and the mission they seem to be accomplishing. You see, in January, the coach was told he would not coach next year. They (I guess "principal") wanted to take the program "in a different direction". Most can see the underlying politics. Coach has taken team to state playoffs three years in a row and each year advanced a little further.
But that is okay. We are taking it in a different direction ~ Region Championship and all the way to State!!!!!
I am so proud of all the boys!!!!!
What fun memories they are creating.
