Florida and Washington look to advance to the Saturday semi-final round down in Greenville, NC.
Both Kentucky and North Carolina have made the Final Four, so today, we find out their opponents.
Florida defeated Washington in the opener, and it wasn’t a close game, but the kiddos from Snohomish have won two straight games in the consolation bracket to remain alive.
The natural temperature 🌡is in the low 90s, and the fell like temperature 🌡is in triple digits.
Washington goes down in order in the top of the first inning. Florida is coming to bat…
Florida (Southeast) loaded the bases in the bottom of the 1st, but Snohomish escapes….
Watching 👀 the game with Coach Knight and his 684 high school victories & my bride 👰♂, Linda. Back in the day, she was the second best player on an incredibly well coached church ⛪️ league team. So, Coach has earned three rings 💍 while at Page County High School. I only won one as a coach, I did take that ring 💍 and put it on the finger of my left fielder, and 41 years later, she is still here !
Scoreless as we head to the third inning…
4:13 – Lightning 🌩 delay, Florida leading 1-0.
Getting ready to resume play shortly after 70+ minutes…..
