The Brats finished the year with an incredible 36-5 record outscoring their opponents 255-56. The Brats have compiled 411 wins with only 80 losses over the past 9 seasons winning an incredible 41 Championships. The Brats have outscored their opponents 2809-703 while posting an amazing 220 shutouts. What a run! Congratulations girls! Well, the 2008 season is history, and guess what? "THEY'RE BACK" The Brats are back, but this time at the 23 & under level for the 2009 season. Will they pick up where they left off in 2008? If history repeats itself, it looks like they will. With another tremendous season under their belt, the Brats will find themselves as one of the youngest teams at the 23 & under level in 2009. Being the youngest team has never bothered previous Brats teams, only time will tell if the tradition continues.

The Brats lost the opening game of the doubleheader 4-0. The Brats got exceptional pitching from Kristen Mahoney. The Brats only hit was a perfectly executed drag bunt from Jenna Lipscomb. It was the first time in a long time that a team has gone 7 inning with the Brakettes. In the 2nd game, it looked like the Brats would hang with the Brakettes again until the inning from hell(sloppy defensive play) put an end to that. The Brakettes scored 12 runs in the second inning all with 2 outs with the final score eventually being 14-5. The good news is the Brats were able to score 5 runs, only 1 other team, a professional team(Philadelphia Force) has scored 5 or more runs against the Brakettes......scoring 5 runs is a great accomplisment. Emily Leverone led the Brats with 2 hits, with Marissa Palumbo, Brenna Morrissey, & Ashley Bilodeau having a hit of their own. Marissa Palumbo, Casey Stoodley, & Brenna Morrissey all shined defensively.
