Pennridge came to battle today. We scored three runs to start the game, and they came right back with two of their own in the bottom of the inning. Pennridge has really improved as a team, and their hitters do a nice job of putting the ball in play. I was fortunate to have coached many of the seniors on this team, and it has been great to see their development throughout the season. They are a really special group of girls with bright futures.

Our coaching staff has emphasized the importance of staying the course and keeping our focus down the stretch. I am proud of how the girls are approaching each game as if it's their last. They're playing with urgency, but are loose and having fun. Our seniors continue to contribute in a big way. Skyler Byrnes hit 3 home runs and pitched two scoreless innings. Ava Detwiler had 2 hits and got the win for us on the mound. Kathryn Jones has really been an unsung hero on our team. She had 3 more hits and is putting up MVP-type numbers this year. I thought all of our players had great at-bats today, but I was especially proud of Kiera (Fadden) and her ability to attack balls at different speeds and locations. We have become more disciplined at the plate, which has made us more of a threat offensively.
