Pre-Season Baseball Tourney

If you didn't notice the Davis family didn't make it to church on Sunday. We've been at the park ALL weekend. The Youth Association decided to have a preseason tournament and both the boys played. Adam's 5 year old Tball team made it in to the championship game, but unfortunately lost. But the got a cool medal that he is SO proud of. Jake's team hadn't lost a game until last night. They're now in the losers bracket. If they win they're in the championship. If they lose they're done.
Both boys played pretty well. Rance and I are coaching the t ball team together. Adam wants the ball all the time. The problem is he wants to go to first most of the time. All in all for a 4 yr old he played well. Briley did pretty good too. We moved them both up so for their age the both hit well and stopped some balls.
I didn't get to see most of Jake's games, just last nights. I had a couple of people come up and tell me that he was having a great tourney. He was killing it. He almost had a couple go over the fence and had several good catches. Last night he turned a beautiful double play, but the other boy couldn't quite hang on to the ball. What I'm most proud of is that he's learning from his mistakes, and acting like a coach on the field and talking to the other players.
All for now. I'll post pics after it's over.

UPDATE-Jake's team won so they're now in the PreSeason Championship game. Unfortunately it's a double elimination.
