KofC State Softball Tournament
Well, our Charter Softball Team went out to Austin, and experienced a
Saturday full of fun! With only minor injuries, we played valiantly to only be
eliminated from competition after four games, but we did not come home empty
handed! We learned many things from very early on, even before we entered our
first game. It seems that we could have dropped and added eligible players at
the signup meeting. There were a few councils that had multiple teams, and a
couple that sent a total of four teams! I can honestly say we gave it our best
effort, and we have a game plan for next year, when we would like to again
represent our great council with a team with at least 15 players. Not having
additional players is the major
obstacle we encountered this first year. In the coming years, we know we need to
have additional players, so that we can rotate during the game.
I would like to say that I am “Honored” to have been a part of this Charter
Team, and “Thanks” to those of you that were able to be there with me! We can
look back five or ten years from now, and say “Remember the first year we went
to the State Tournament”, and I firmly believe the results will be much
different then. As we discussed our game plan for next year’s competition (out
by the pool… having a cool one), I look forward to representing the council next
year with you all.
Thanks to the Council for supporting our efforts, and thanks to the fans that
followed us to the last game! A big Thank You to those who were able to make
some of our practices, to help us prepare, and a Thank you to the few that
started out on the team only to be pulled away due to other things.
Fraternally,
Roldan Diaz
