Spokane - The Rockets beat Seattle Christian Friday 10-0, then lost to Colville 2-1 in the quarterfinals. Today they played Montesano at 9 a.m. in a loser out game.
And this is the smile of a girl who just hit her first home run! That had been Macee's goal all season, also her Mom had told her all along that she would pay her $20 for a home run. But, just before the game today, Des told her she would raise that to $100, and then her Grammie Bouchey chimed in that she would match it, and her first at bat Macee did it! And scored 2 runs...it was so cool. We really laughed because when Macee was younger and playing soccer, she would often get so close to scoring a goal but never did-so one day her Grandpa Gourde offered her $5 for a goal, and she scored 6 of them! He never offered that again! Unfortunately, even with her home run and a beauty of a throw to home at the bottom of the 7th which kept them alive to play an extra inning, and despite Tierney's great pitching, they lost 8-7. They were very disappointed but still had a great season.
Rielee kept busy trying to stay warm-it was a very cold and wet tournament.
Parker got to run the score board-at a state tournament, how fun is that, he did a good job, too!
