"The best game these ladies have played all year! The energy....was certainly at an ultimate high. We came after them early. Putting the ball in play and generating a 3 run lead. I thought that was big. I heard Callahan tell the team in the huddle "We can't let up. Don't get comfortable with this lead!". She followed that up with a solo homerun, increasing the lead to 4. Which proved to be the winning run. We gave up 3 runs late, and made things interesting. Flat Rock had a runner on and Cerroni up to bat in the bottom of the 7th. I wasn't exactly comfortable in that moment. We have been beat by them late more times than I can count over the past couple years. But Gracie Brinkerhoff just gets better under pressure, and she rose to the occasion. She incorporated some big pitches deep in the at bat to Cerroni, one of their top three hitters. I just thought she zoned in and did what she needed to. It was an emotional win for the kids. They worked hard for this one. They had a lot to play for and they certainly stepped up in all aspects."
