2007 Softball Season in Review
We can only strive to do the best we can, and hope that it is our best ever.
Our 12u team wrapped up its storybook season with an impressive 7th place finish in a field of 80 teams at the NSA World Series in Charlotte, NC. The talk wasn't about the ellusive title. Instead, the focus was on what the Team accomplished in the 2007 Season.
Our squad won an impressive 7 tournaments, including the Illinois USSSA and NSA State Championships, and in addition were runner-ups in two 14-Under Tournaments. The team ended the season with an overall record of 76 Wins, 9 Losses, which included 29 shut-outs, 10 no-hitters and a run differential of 574:165. Way to Play!!!!
Most important, we impressed many teams who approached us throughout the season to compliment the team on not only their play, but behavior, attitude and drive.Thank you to the Coaching Staff, Players, Families, and Fans of the White Sox Academy!
Go Sox!!!!!!!

June 22, 2008 - What a way to battle out of the "we like playing more games" Bracket to take 2nd place in the State Tournament. In the end, after 5 back-to-back games, the energy to beat them twice escaped you. Congratulations ladies, you are amazing.
HOT, HOT, HOT! ...
June 15, 2008 - It was long road down to Decatur to play some of the state's best! The initial stormy forcast disipated leading to a weeking of sun and heat. We witnessed some of the best ball playing to date, real battles unfolded on the fields, and congratulations on winning the war at the Pepsi/CIGS Showdown.
THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE ...
May 4, 2008 - What a weekend at the Sharks Tourney. Blustery and sunny, hard balls and soft balls. In the end, you came out on top. Great games, including vs. TL's Rocker ladies who always play us hard. The Chapionship game, well, what could I say but what a way to cap off the tourney. You showed your class, integrity and respect for the game by playing it as it should always be played. Thank you and Congratulations!
