San Diego Trip Recap

The Bellarmine Prep Lady Lion Softball team returned from a successful trip to San Diego on Monday, with three games under their belt, ready to start their league schedule. (however, the weather isn't coorperating).

Game Scores:
Cathedral Catholic 9 Bellarmine 0
Game Notes: Bellarmine made 6 errors in the first three innings, which led to 6 unearned runs. Bellarmine held Cathedral scoreless for the final 3 innings. Lauren Schilter went 2-3 in the game, and Haley Dusek went 1-1 with a walk

Bellarmine Prep 12 Canyon Crest 2
Game Notes: Bellarmine came out swinging right away, scoring 5 runs in the first inning, and never looked back. As a team Bellarmine recorded 15 hits. Anna Olson pitched the first 5 innings for the win, and Sarah Sorrensen came in to pitch the last two.

Horizon Christian 1 Bellarmine Prep 0
Game Notes: Bellarmine faced quite possibly the best pitcher in Souther California, but battled to the bitter end, even getting the go ahead run to second base at one point, but ultimately fell short. The highlight of this game was freshman Sarah Sorrensen making her first career start for the Lions, going 5 innings and only giving up 1 run.

The team thanks everyone who helped make it possible for this trip to happen. It was a great experience on and off the field.

San Diego Trip Update

Here is a hand-out I passed out to the Varsity Players last week:

Fastpitch San Diego Trip Information
Dates: Wed. March 18 – Sun. March 22
Flight info:
Fly out of SeaTac on Alaska Air at 5pm on Wed.
Arrive back at SeaTac on Alaska Air around 1pm on Wed.
(Will get detailed flight info soon)
Lodging: Old Town Inn in San Diego
Transportation: Girls will be traveling as a team in two vans driven bycoaches
Katie Pederson has rented a van to carry equipment and might have room for more passengers. Please contact her to discuss this
Meals: Meals will be included in the overall cost of the trip
Spending Money: We plan to do a couple of fun outings while in San Diego. It is recommended that the girls bring $150 in spending for the trip
Cost of the trip: Each girl will be responsible for paying $175 for the trip.
* If any player has an issue with this cost, please see the coaches privately to discuss options.

More Details: We will be leaving for the Airport at 2:30pm on Wednesday right at the end of school. Girls will either need to bring their bags to school with them, or arrange a parent to bring their bags at 2:30pm. As for now, we have 4 parents going on the trip, so between parents and coaches, we should be able to get all the girls to the airport. I will be contacting the parents going separately to discuss this. However, parents are welcome to take their daughter to the airport if they’d like. The same will go for when we return. We can bring girls back to Bellarmine for pick-up, or you can pick your daughter up at the airport. We will discuss packing, and all that fun stuff as we get closer to the trip date, as we will need to pack light.
Please call or email me if you have any questions: coove14@gmail.com or 973-9389.

Monday Practice Schedule

Due to the March snow, we will be practicing inside on Monday, March 9. Practice will end around 6pm.
