But I remind myself that playing on the B Dazzlers is not about winning. It’s about having fun, and gaining experience, and making sure that everyone gets a chance to play, no matter what their skill level.
OK, it would be nice to win one, though.
This team, no chance, they were really, really good. Powerful, strong hitters. Our A team could have beaten them, but it would have been a close game.
Hey! We didn’t lose by 100, though!
Below are some great pics taken by the photographer at the Augusta Chronicle, Michael Holahan.
Here I am reaching back to try and whip my jammer around the front of the pack. You can see her reaching, and the opposing playing coming in for the hit.
Here is the opposing player connecting that hit with our jammer and me realizing that whip isn't gonna happen.
Aaaaand, tha aftermath...
Derby Rocks!
