#8 seeded Rowan versus #1 seed and undefeated Virginia Wesleyan University in the opening game of a week long celebration of the sport of softball in the Roanoke Valley.
Yes, the D1 College World Series is getting underway out in Oklahoma City, and eight teams are set to battle for the crown 👑 but we have eight teams doing the same right here in the Roanoke Valley.
$50.00 will get you a pass for the week, and the price drops to $30.00 if you are a senior citizen. A great deal of quality Softball for a fair asking price and parking is free of charge!
Game 1 is in the Books 📚 and the grounds crew is working hard to prepare the field for game #2, Redlands versus Linfield in the 4 versus 5 match-up.
The Marlins will have a long road back now, but the beauty of a double elimination event is that you get to keep playing after your first setback.
2:01 has been announced as the start time for game 2….
Options for the next stop ✋️ on Kevin Burress Day are

Oregon vs. California here in the long way from home 🏡 pairing.

Class 3 Regional Track 👣 and Field meet in Christiansburg !
Happy Birthday 🎂 to Kevin Burress !
Much more to follow !
The track 👣 portion of the competition begins at 2pm.
We also have two softball games to keep an eye on as Page County travels to Fort Defiance for the right to play defending champion Central – Woodstock and Virginia Wesleyan University opens as the #1 seed in the D3 College World Series at Moyer Sports Park in Salem.
As we head into the early morning hours here in Carroll County, we are assured that Brenden Fariss will still be standing as the underclassmen is set to compete at the Track and Field State Championship next month. The question of the day is, will anyone be fortunate enough to join the young man ?
Casey Burcham, Forrest Johnson, and Adrienne Harris McGuire will each look to keep their seasons going on the road. A victory for any of the hard-working trio will advance them to within one game of their respective State Tournaments !
Shawn Montgomery and Jon Delp will travel up to Christiansburg with their Boys and Girls Track, and Field teams will look to add to the individual guest list for the pending trip to Lynchburg. Ferris has once again qualified in the High Jump, and there are two Cavaliers that will be wearing our colors one last time. Amelia Dalton ( Concord ) and Trenton Newman ( Lynchburg ) are both set to wrestle in college next year and would love to extend their high school careers today at their meet.
We also have our top singles and double teams heading to Abingdon for the individual events in tennis 🎾.
Four games are set to be played on day one up in Salem with VWU opening the day up at 1pm. The Marlins are looking to extend their perfect season (49-0) and start with Rowan.
Psalm 23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
File this one under things that made me smile. Our Soccer ⚽️ coaches are constantly trying to introduce their love of the sport to our youth ! Here’s the latest example…
Have a Blessed Day 🙌
