This weekend was the end of the year tournament for Azia's team. They only lost a 1-2 games all year, so it was kind of a bummer they didn't do as well in the tournament as they were capable of doing.
They just played really inconsistently: their worst game of the year, followed by two of their best (where they shut out the two teams 11-0 and 5-0 and had to end the 11-0 one in the 3rd inning they were so far ahead!) Their last game they started really just off their game: all sorts of fielding errors & overthrows, no solid batting, and fighting with each other. They completely pulled it together after the 2nd inning, played really well and held the other team while picking up a few runs themselves every inning. And then they just ran out of time (literally, tournament games are timed) and ended the last inning with the tying run stranded on 3rd.
Finishing in the top four still isn't too bad! It's going to be sad when this team has to break up next year. A handful of the girls will be moving up to 12U.
