Maine Sports Report Senior Softball

In preparation for the Senior League State Tournament on July 21, the Maine Sports Report team hosted a scrimmage game against the very talented Brewer U16 ASA team on Wednesday night, July 11, in Old Town. MSR played extremely well and came away with a 3-1 victory in their very first game as a team.

Some of the game highlights include Hannah Morin getting the first ever base hit and scoring the very first run for MSR, Sam Besse had the first RBI for MSR, and Jillian French recording the team's first pitch at 5:12 p.m. as well as recording the first ever strikeout from the circle.

It was an exciting time for everyone, as the girls recieved their new uniforms just prior to the game. Everyone got to play, and at the conclusion of the game all of the coaches were very optimistic about the team. They will have another scrimmage on July 19 against a team that includes some players from Thomas College.
