” Great team effort tonight.  Peyton was dominant again on the mound.  Chanson led the game off with a double, I thought our approach at the plate was tremendously better than the first few games of the season.

Bryce had a huge RBI single in the 6th to keep the lead at 3 runs.  Couldn’t be more proud of these guys tonight.”

Thank you, Coach Burcham !

Getting to spend 15 quality minutes with part of the Burcham Bunch prior to warm-ups led to the fun photo 📸 of his senior class. The group defines what it is to be a student athlete, and they appear to respect the game and their coach !

The strawberry shortcake 🍰 part of the story made me smile. A few years back, when Softball coach Rick Nester had a team that flirted with double figures in regards to seniors, I suggested letting each player have their own version of Senior Night and then have the big one at the end.

Burcham actually improved on the idea 💡by letting the player choose his favorite dessert 🍨. Tonight, it was Bryce Cochran Night, hence the strawberry shortcake ! I had hoped to circle back by, but baseball ⚾️ finished up before softball .

Peyton Spencer was dealing once again, and the zero in the error column tells you that his defense had his back !
