Rapid City Girls Junior Olympic USA Fastpitch Softball

Just an FYI, that concessions will be open for tonight and tomorrow’s games but we will not have burgers or brats.

Great showing ladies!

The United 16’s finish the RingNeck tournament with a 4-1 record. An overall great showing but an exit that will leave a bad taste in your mouth.
Instead of being out on the track with the other horses, we left ours in the stable this morning. ( 4 quarters please). Going to keep fighting. One day we are hoping to collect from the pot. Tired of throwing money in like Josh. Thanks for all the support! We will be back!

Congrats United 16!

Way to go Sandlots!

Congratulations to the Sandlots on winning the Gold in the Rushmore Classic!!
