Twenty-Seven Hours Later...

This past weekend we were in Topeka at the Ken Berry Sport Complex for a grand total of 27 hours. Yes, I'm very serious. Syd's team lost their first game Friday night immediately dropping them into the 'loser's bracket' and they spent the next two days fighting their way out. One of our coaches also got thrown out Friday night after an altercation with the home plate umpire in over-time. One of the mother's on our team later promised to beat his arse when he told her to "Go the "F" back to Lawrence where you are used to winning!" Needless to say he messed with the wrong mommy and was issued a restraining order of sorts from our team indefinitely. Talk about drama!

Sunday in 97 degree heat they started playing at 9:30am and played their seventh game around 6pm that night, all back-to-back with 20 minutes at the most in between for light food and potty breaks.
The trophy was taller than a couple of our players!
 Hot, tired, dirty, and a little ragged these little girls never gave up, never showed an ounce of quit and were determined to take home the state championship, and.... they sure did!
Congratulation Phenix girls!
