Our next Softball capsule (#15)  goes to our Lady Cavaliers Softball Alumni! We want them at our park, we need them at our park !

Pictured here : Macie Adkins and Emma Leath.

Dream senerio for game night at Cavalier Park would include a smiling face holding a clipboard πŸ“‹, writing down names of every former Carroll County softball player in the crowd.

The duo pictured above are both someone whom I got to know better than most over the years. But they aren’t the only former players coming across the Boulevard to watch us play. Kevin Burress and Tammy Tobler both try to assist me in acknowledging everyone we see πŸ‘€ but wouldn’t it be easier if this was hands-on?

Our crowd got older this year, which is another way to state that we lost out on the younger crowd. Every program at every level should desire to embrace their alumni ! Wasn’t it cool to see Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes attending the Texas Tech softball games in Oklahoma City ?

The same way that our Lady Cavaliers are currently criss-crossing the region playing travel ball, the efforts to create an atmosphere that matches the beauty of our facility is ongoing !

Yes, that title was borrowing from Aaron Sorkin and the classic movie 🎬 ” A few good men.” Listen closely, and you can hear Jack Nicholson saying, ” You want me on that wall 🧱, you need me on that wall 🧱”.

Softball is The Greatest Game on Dirt !

We’ve seen Texas win the D1 and Redlands capture D3, now its time to see who wins the Class 3 version of the Greatest Show on Dirt !

Abingdon and Staunton River are representing our region. Broadway is trying to repeat, and I have a grandson attending Skyline, so that covers half of the Elite Eight.

Trying to promote the sport of choice is always fun, and it gets better when there is a connection !

Everyone is trying hard to get to Moyer Sports Park, and four will punch πŸ‘Š their ticket 🎟 tonight !

Once a team has their season come to an end, the question is, who still cares about the rest of the tournament ? There is no right or wrong answer. it’s just a fun question.

Tonight, the plan is to keep an eye πŸ‘ on the Falcons and track down the other final scores.

Softball capsule #14 belongs to Mr Ron Cochran as a show of gratitude πŸ™ for years of partnership with our Foul Ball contest at Cavalier Park !

Every home Softball game for the past four seasons, Ron Cochran has joined me in our Foul Ball contest and the pics above show six of the winners from this season !

A sincere show of gratitude πŸ™ to Ron for his making this possible the past four years !

This year, we even had a new participant in the program as the energetic young Lady that shares his shop with him joined in on the fun !

Ron Cochran, you Sir, are a wonderful man πŸ‘¨!!!
