Saturday consisted of a good day of play that saw Magic going 2-1, in pool play.
11-0 over Rebels
5-0 over the Ladyhawks
7-3 under the Utah Devastaion.
Sunday Magic Beat Ladyhawks 11-0.
Magic won a very close and hard fought battle with the Rowdies in a last inning win with time expired. Magic went into the last inning down 4-3. Ashley, Hali, Cassandra, and Amanda all got on base, but it was Amanda's hit with 2 outs, and the winning run on 3rd that synched the game.
Magic made it to the finals and lost to a very good team Whom hosted the tournament. The Mystic.
Congratulations Mystic.
We took second overall, qualifying us for the Triple Crown World series in Utah.
Way to go Magic!

2nd place in Western Nationals (AFA)
The travel team that Amber and I are on made a final appearance for the season.
We went to Barstow California for the "AFA WEstern Nationals 14 B" we advanced through pool play, by going 0-1-1. Which didn't look very good. In bracket play, we won our first and second game. We came back ther next day to loose a very close game with the Desert Blaze team. It was an international tie breaker, and that sent us to the losers bracket. We promptly beat the next team 17-5 and were sent to the finals against.... the Desert Blaze. We were on a roll and momentum was on our side. Then... A freak monsoonal rainstorm hit, postponing play, and flooding the fields. We were not allowed to play the final game, but by virtue of previous meeting, the advantage went to Desert Blaze, and the were given the championship, and we were relagated to 2nd.
