Edited: Unfortunately, The Lady Thunder lost the first game which meant the best they could place would be third. They were determined to make that happen. They played the second game without jitters. They had fun, talked each other through the game and won (which we watched). It was an awesome game. The boys watched without making a move. They played a third game that night (we didn't stay as it was getting late). They lost 1-0; which meant that their journey was complete. They were sad and disappointed. They triumphed as they made back-to-back state appearances; which hadn't happened for Mt. View before. Two of the three seniors will go on to play at the collegiate level. The pitcher (and one of Lesley's best friends) will play for Portland State, Lesley is headed to Utah as a short stop.

The boys were incredible. They watched not only Lesley's game, but we had time to kill between games, so we watched another game (people we didn't know) and they sat through it and loved it.
