Pride Takes 2nd Place in "It's Getting Hot" Tournament
The Cherokee Pride Girls played very good against some good talent in the "It's Getting Hot in Kennworth" Tournament. Played 1 warm-up game, followed by a double elimination bracket play, May 10th, 2008. A 1 day tournament starting at 8am and championship game being played at 9pm, a full day of softball.
The girls played well in their first bracket game to continue in the winners bracket against the West Cobb Thunder. In a tough battle, a game at any moment that could have gone either way, the girls took a loss to the North GA Blazers by 1 run. Battled back in the losers bracket to beat the West Cobb Thunder to take on the North GA Blazers in the Championship game. The Pride took the lead at the top of the last inning, and took the loss in the bottom of the inning after the Blazers were able to score 2 runs. The two best games of the tournament were between the North Ga Blazers and our Pride Girls.
Good Job Girls!
