Braket Play - Saturday

Saturday, not a cloud in the sky. Good thing because rain or shine, this was the last day to play no matter what. The girls were fired up and ready to show what they brought.

Score!
This poor girl tried to steal second on Millie.  Millie was having no part in it.  She's out!

Then it rained some (not even kidding) so the girls had a dance party and then we had our winning run by Brooklyn!

Safe for the WIN!

On to game 2 of the brackets. This was actually a team we have played before, they are from KY and we find them to be super annoying and rude. We very much didn't want to lose to this team.

Millie's safe!
Safe again
I think Rick's happier than the girls

And we didn't lose to them, that win put us into the championship game. We had to wait through one game and we would play the winner of that game. This is when it got interesting. It started raining. Who would have thought, it had been so pleasant all week (please note the sarcasm). Well, not only did it rain but it was another super hard downpour that was flooding the field. At some point during this with all the teams huddled under an awning for shelter, the directors decided to put an end to the waiting. The ended the tournament. So, since we were number 1 seed, we awarded us the title of champion and second place went to the team that was winning the game that got stopped. I can't say for sure who would have won the game between us and the 2nd place team. We would have played the Dragons who were the team we started playing in the second pool play game earlier in the week that got rained out 2 different days. We were very evenly matched teams and it honestly could have gone either way. The girls were of course very happy with the outcome and the parents were too but I would like to see us face that team sometime in the future and see how it would have played out.

You can't tell but that's a lot of rain behind them
