Georgia Dixie Softball: My Site News
Thursday, August 2Georgia Does Well at 2012 World Series
Congratulations are in order for the Georgia Angels (from Jones County National League) and the Georgia Ponytails (from Columbia County). Both were runner-up in their respective World Series at Georgetown and Hartsville, South Carolina. This is a big accomplishment for these teams, their leagues and for the state of Georgia. This is the first time that an Angels team has come home with a competition trophy from a World Series and the first time for a Ponytails fast pitch team. Georgia has had winners and runner-ups in the Debs and Belles (and twice in Ponytails slow pitch). I am very excited about the improved level of play and look forward to many more teams from Georgia bringing home "hardware" from future World Series. Our other teams had a great time at their series, only wanting to win more games but still having a great time. I have heard nothing but positive reports from our players and coaches. I also received superlative compliments on the Angels X-Play team for their sportsmanship. I am proud of all our Georgia teams. It has been a great season and our Belles and Debs will be heading toward Powhatan either today or tomorrow for the World Series. We wish them well and hope they bring some more hardware back to Georgia. Again congratulations to all our leagues, hope you have a great off season and look forward to seeing you next year.
