Well you just never know. This weekend's HS tourney was a wild ride. 2 pool games on Friday, first one was going to be a close game and we lost 0-1. Second pool should have been a blowout ( our favor ) and we lost 2-4. Third pool we lost 1-5.
For pool we gave up 10 runs and scored 3. ( cough cough )
So I'm debating if I should even stay for the brackets ( I don't handle losing well ) and since I already couldn't sleep last night and was tired. But somehow I found the strength to stay.
We started the brackets dead last in seeding. ( this part is not a brag ) Last time I can even remember us being dead last was a tourney in 10u. To get dead last, you gotta do almost everything.............wrong.
We had to play in the "play in" game against the second to last in pool. Heck, the way we were playing I figured we were toast and we'd be "one and done".
BING BANG BOOM, I still have no idea what happened but we came out fighting. Looked like a totally different team than the 3 games before.
So we won that one, won the next, next, next, and unbelievable we were in the championship game. ( single elimination )
And after a hard fought champ game, we won the tourney. I was speechless. They never gave up, even though I had written this tourney off after going 0-3 in pools. ( shame on me )
In brackets we scored 35 runs and gave up 3.
Very proud of the girls, and they taught me a lesson.
