On the road again…

Three wins in their final six games (all on the road) will lock up a playoff spot for the Raiders. (Three losses by the team trailing them will result in the same fate, but winning is better than hoping for someone else to lose.)

P.S. Willie Nelson is coming to Britt this summer.

Raiders win in walk-off fashion

Brianne Craig threw 178 pitches in game one against Corban this weekend, a game with as many “woulda, coulda, shouldas” as innings (10), but the Raiders came up short. Shutout for the first six innings, the Raiders won game two with a walk-off. Ontiveros led the way with two hits, a run, and SOU’s only RBI.

All in all, it was not a bad week for Southern Oregon softball. The Raiders split with the ranked teams and swept the unranked team. If they do as well or better for the rest of the season they will make the playoffs and possibly end up in the final rankings.

Yesterday’s “Senior Day” at the SOU softball doubleheader against Corban was rained out (sort of). They will finish the first game at noon today (4/12/15) before playing game two.

In Play

Congratulations to Southern Oregon University softball’s four seniors.

There have been many recent softball games in Ashland for the Raiders. There will be many more this week. However, this is it. After this week the Raiders will play all of their remaining games on the road.

Today’s doubleheader (games begin at 2 and 4) will be against Oregon Tech, the conference leaders with a 14-3 record in CCC play.

More than seven years ago I remember 9 or 10-year old Grace (who I had never before met) walking up to me before our first practice and saying something like, “Hey Al, let’s play catch!” I have been a fan of Miss Lenthe ever since.

Tomorrow the AHS softball team plays at North Mountain Park at 5 p.m. (as does the baseball team). The forecast is for rain.

The crop of the above photo on souraiders.com is pretty crazy. I kind of like it, but in case you want to see the rest of the image I offer the latest installment in “The Whole Picture”.

You would think a team called the “Fighting Saints” would be penalized more often for pass interference.

Once upon a time, 30-40 years ago, my bedroom walls were covered in posters and pennants. In fact, I ran out of space on the walls and had to go to the ceiling. Eventually the ceiling ran out of room (literally), and then I had to move out to go to college. Flash forward to the present day and nothing has changed, except that now I take the photos, and the canvas has moved from my bedroom walls and ceiling to the streets of Ashland.
