St. Louis Diamond Cats

August 8 – 10, 2011

ASA Northern Nationals  – Record 8 – 2 – 0

1^st place out of 14 teams – 12UA

What an amazing week!  The girls played so well, and even with our two losses, we were in the games until the end.  We got great pitching, good defense, and timely hitting.  We had not beaten the Esprit (Federhofer) all year, and we get to the championship game needing to win twice…and we did it.  I will take losing to them all year to getting those wins at the end when the whole season is on the line.  It was a hot, grueling week, but the girls were amazing and just NEVER gave up and always BELIEVED they could do it.  Great job, Cats!
