Wave wins

The 10U West University Softball Association Wave recently played in the 2023 Deer Park Fastpitch Association Tournament. The girls had a successful tournament, going undefeated and winning the championship game against the Hit Squad 10U 7-4.  The Wave started the game with a two-run first inning and never let up, scoring seven runs on seven hits. In addition to having success on the field, the Wave also took home the crown for the costume contest with their theme of “Softball Barbie.” Pictured are coaches (from left) Chris O'Neill, Brandon Baudin, Philip Bunting; and players (standing, from left) Lincoln Bonnette, Cate O'Neill, Olivia Taschery, Lizzie Baudin, Gemma Baird, Pippa Beasley, Cami Bunting; (kneeling, from left) Isla Shaftel, Shiloh Landrum, and Talia Wright.
