Game vs. Michigan 4/24/2006 (W 7-0)

It's starting to sound like a broken record, but it was another great effort by the team.  There was great pitching and tight defense throughout the game.  The offense was little slow at the beginning, but broke the game open in the last two innings.
 
Kudos to:
 
  • Nicole Bridgens, game ball, her first two hits resulted in three runs batted in.  Her hits were at clutch moments in the game.

  • Jessica, another outstanding pitching performance; she pitched four innings, allowed no runs, only three hits, and one walk.  She also scored a run by performing one of the best slides I've ever seen; I thought sure she was out, but somehow she slid around the tag.

  • Danielle, pitched three innings in relief, allowed no runs, allowed only one walk, and struck out seven.  She also had two runs batted in.

  • Meghan Chambers, put the ball in play to drive in a run.

  • Meredith, continued to show a good eye at the plate and drew another walk.
 
And from Mr. T., special kudos to:
 
  • Mr. Rick Bridgens, for spending a lot of time preparing the field for the game.  If he doesn't spend the time he did, there would have been no game; the field would have been unplayable because of last Saturday's rain.
 
Good job, girls.  We're very proud of you!
 
Mr. B. and Mr. T.
