WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS..........






Last week, on Wednesday night, Morgan's all star team won the district division.  Pretty awesome!  It was a close game, 4-1; but a great one.  Morgan threw a girl out at second and it was a great play and it was very needed at that time!  It was so exciting.  The team is a great team with great families.  We all get along so well and really have a great time together.  This weekend, we went to play for the state championship title.  It was the best two out of three games against Roxboro.  We drove to Roxboro, about a two hour drive (in the middle of nowhere).  Their first game was at 3pm, about 95 degrees out.  VERY HOT!!!!  It was a great game; we won 24-0.  We pretty much blew them out of the water.  The next game was scheduled for 7pm but we didn't get started until 9pm.  This time, the other team put up a good fight.  We were actually tied at one point in the 2nd inning.  Kind of a nail biter.  We really did not want to have to play a third game. Long story short......our team did what they know how to do best; they won 24-12.  All sorts of emotions were present.  Excitement, exhilaration, exhaustion, a bit overwhelming, and a humble pride.  The girls and their coaches deserved it; they played their hearts out and really are an incredible team.   They always thought about the next play.  We tailgated that whole day - needless to say, we were ready to pack up and go home.  We arrived home around 1:15 in the morning and PASSED OUT!  We all slept in until 11:00.  We are still in a fog from being so tired.  Hope you enjoy the photos.
