This pic was from Sunday night around Midnight. After we dropped the title game in our season finale. A day where we were at the park at 6:45am for an 8:00 game - and battled through a tough bracket to make it to the last game of the day.
We played the entire tourney with 9 in the lineup. Having 4 in get-healthy mode. There are 10 kids here and if I was skilled enough to photoshop in the other 3 in I would - because they belong in the story. Almost a poetic finish to our chaotic season, but I couldn’t be more proud of how we went out. These boys showed their resilience, determination, respect, and love for the game and it was the most perfect, imperfect ending I could ask for.
The ball of the dog-days didn’t bounce our way and the sole focus now is to get these boys healthy - but I couldn’t be more proud of the ballplayers we have, the grind they put in, and their love for the game. These boys are gonna hang up the cleats for a few weeks, get healthy, and come back ready for a memorable 12u season.
Thank you to the boys, parents, friends, and family for all playing a role in supporting the love these kids have for this awesome game.
