Tonight was the night that LCC friends and family were challenged to come and "root" on our softball teams against Eastside Christian. Our goal was 100 people. While we didn't hit that, Jared counted over 60!! AND IT WORKED! WE WON! WE WON! WE WON! The women played a great game and ended up winning 3-2. My wonderful wife also hit in the winning run, way to go hon! Angie Miller also caught the final out with her bare hand after it fell out of her glove, WOW! Oh, I almost forgot, the ladies turned the first double play of the 08 season! What a game.
The men also played very well. We DID NOT have a "Loveland Inning". That is an inning when we look more like the Bad News Bears than a church softball team. We ended up winning 6-2. Keith Wrassmann and Nate Hirsch both had home runs.
The best part of tonight was the fellowship. It was like the softball games of old. In the 90's softball games were the highlight fellowship activity of the week. People would pour in and root on our teams. For many reasons, there are several weeks when we don't have but one or two folks watching and they are usually related to someone playing. Tonight people were everywhere and the cheers were motivation. IT REALLY MADE A DIFFERENCE! Thanks to everyone who took time to be there tonight and if you couldn't make it, we play almost every Monday night. Simply check out our schedule HERE.
