A "Throw Back Thursday" to the 2015 Girls Softball Finals

11/6/2015

 
​The day was May 23, 2015 and the Vintage Magnet Softball Team is thinking back about all of their ups and downs that led them to this day. They begin to prepare themselves for another finals appearance, but only this time they want to come out on top.
The Vintage Magnet Girls sports teams in the past have been successful enough to give teams a run for their money. They have had teams that look unstoppable, and done the unthinkable. Last year they reached the final rounds 3 out of the 4 times  in the afterschool major tournaments that take place every year, and unfortunately have come up short every time.
With a team that does not have much softball experience, it was safe to say that they were the underdogs of the final round of 8 teams. 1 win means they guarantee themselves a trophy. 2 wins and they are now fighting for 1st and 2nd.
The first game they played was against Fair Ave Elementary where the game got tied twice in 4 innings. At 4-4 both teams go to extra innings and Fair Ave goes up to bat first. They score a run and take the lead, but Vintage makes a fantastic catch and gets the double play. Down by 1, and with 2 outs rookie 3rd Gr, Andrea H. hits a homerun to win and advance to the next game.
After all the excitement, Vintage prepared themselves for round 2 which they knew was not going to get easier. They went against a familiar foe in Pacoima Elementary. The game started out rough and were down early in the game 6-0. They did not let any more runs go, but the damage had been done. As Vintage goes up to bat for the last time, they get a rally to end up scoring 7 runs and win a game that everyone thought was already lost.
Vintage definitely looked like a Cinderella story as they could not believe they were now going to play for 1st and 2nd place against a dominating team in Canterbury Elementary. Unfortunately the other team was just too good and simply played better. Our team understood that and took the loss with a smile on their face, because they now realized they are the ONLY team to ever get a trophy for the Girls Sports Team, and a first for the Softball Tournament (boys included).
There was definitely a lot of success that day and they were a very happy group of girls that saw that hard work really does pay off.
Hope you enjoyed the story girls and be proud.
