Winter Co-ed Softball on Capitol Hill Wednesday/Thursday

Aaron is opening week player of the week, after a game with a triple to deep left field, and then a home run that scraped the trees of Bobby Morris. His last blast of the night was caught, but only because his opponents were playing on the opposite infield, way beyond the cones. Look out for Aaron this season, he showed no signs of letting up!

Stephen is a perennial Underdog Performer, and this Wednesday he proved that once again with a great day all around the diamond. He crushed a home run to the tennis courts of Bobby Morris, the ball catching tree branches on its way down. Also a lock-down defender in left field, Stephen ran down many would-be blasts and turned them into frustrating outs for his opposition. His team fell a run short in their game, but with a player like Stephen pushing hard, Just a BIT outside is poised for a title run!

Joe pitched all game tonight and threw a great game, keeping the opposing team at bay and off balance. Offensively he had a good game too but it all came down to his at bat in the sixth. With a tied game and a runner on, Joe clubbed a ball that landed just inside the foul line and led to a two run home run that ended up winning the game. Joe had a great night all around.

Amelia is player of the week this week for playing through a hand injury for her team, continuing to bat one-handed and field since her team was looking at a shortage of girls. She still contributed with strong hits and great defense, even making a few catches down the stretch to help her group seal the chanpionship. For perseverance and fighting spirit, Amelia is player of the week!
