Girls Softball
The girls had their first game of the year on February 7. The girls were excited to play again. They got a little bit of experience last year but now it was a brand new year and they were ready to play. They had been practicing for about 2 weeks and they had gloves and balls to practice with. Last year we practiced with tennis balls and our bare hands.
They were playing the other American school called EAB. They started batting and they got three quick outs. The EAB girls went up to bat and scored 6 runs in the inning. It was a rough game for our first game of the year but the girls played hard and kept great attitudes. The final score was 18-1 but you could see the skills were there.
February 23 This was the date of the next game. The girls had went to bed early and gotten a good nights sleep. They woke up early and at a hearty breakfast. They started the first inning scoring 6 runs. The EAB girls managed to stay even and score 6 runs of their own in the bottom of the first. They traded runs back and forth the next six innings. The final score was 12-12. Their was another game scheduled so we could not go into extra innings so it ended as a tie. The girls improved tremendously. Their was great defense by Sarah and Mwango. Great pitching by Priscilla. Great hitting by Mwango, Amna, Aeysha, and Janelle. Sarah Bastos did a great job in the outfield. Ana came for this game and played great defense and hit the ball really hard.The girls are looking forward to their next game so they can see their skills improve.
Boys Softball
The boys had a softball game on February 22 against EAB. The first two innings didn't go that good and EAB scored 12 runs. The boys settled down and the final scored ended 18-4. It was the first game for a lot of the players but they did excellent for only 3 practices before the game. Their is some tremendous talent on the team. Jesse is extremely fast in the outfield and had a couple of great catches. Gustavo is still learning first base but he will be a great first baseman. David did a great job pitching and hitting. Zeeshon can bat very well and is a very good fielder. It was Huat Tharts first game but he showed great athleticism and knew where to be on the field. Goru was the shortstop and he was all over the field catching balls and throwing people out. Frizald started out being catcher and showed his athleticism by making a great catch on a foul ball. It was a good first game and their is lots of room for improvement. With dedication and hard work they can become a very good softball team.

The boys had their 2nd game against EAB. It started out very good by scoring 2 runs in the first inning. EAB answered back with 5 runs in the bottom of the first. They extended their lead in the 2nd and 3rd innings. The final score was 23-4 but there was lots of improvement from the first game. We had two new players in Kwame and Ben. Kwame did a great job in the outfield and Ben was a hitting machine and had a beautiful catch. With a little more practice they will be hitting on all cylinders come the next game. Frizald had a great catch on a foul ball that looked a lot like Derek Jeter. Zeeshon pitched for a couple of innings and was looking like Justin Verlander. Next game they will be ready to play and come out with a victory. It was a great effort and everybody played hard and had great attitudes.
