The
Windham All-Star District six, eleven and twelve-year-old all-star team hit the
field against Gray for the first game of the tournament on Saturday, June 15 at
the Gray-New Gloucester field in Gray.
Windham
started strong, with Kennedy Kimball, #34, on the mound. They ended the top of
the first leaving a Gray runner stranded on second base.
To say
Windham crushed it in the bottom of the first inning is an understatement.
After Chloe Edwards, #14, gets on base, she is followed by Oakley McLeod, #2.
Kimball gets a base hit and takes it all the way home, Windham up 3-0 early on.
After this it was a literal slug fest. Many hits and a lot of stolen bases, as
Windham threw run after run on the scoreboard. Jaydn Kimball, #28, got a
triple, Hannah Lee, #10, crushed the ball to the outfield and doubled, then
scored shortly after. Windham is up 6-0.
These
All-Stars were far from finished. They cycled through their entire lineup and
the runs kept coming. Kimball got another base hit and drove in two runs.
Everyone on the team scored a run in the bottom of the first, some more than
once. It was 20-0 once the inning was finished.
Windham
kept up the intensity and ended the top of the second inning after two
strikeouts and a runner thrown out while trying to steal third base.
Windham
scored one more run in the bottom of the second. Kimball quickly ended the game
by striking out the first three players to step up to the plate.
Final,
21-0 Windham
“We
really asked them to focus hard and work on little details; and they brought it
up today,” stated coach Kregg Jarvais. “Paying attention to details, hustling
around really showed. We’re going to play with a purpose.”
