Atom girls finish second at year-end tournament

Drayton/Moorefield Atom Girls finished in second place in their year-end tournament Aug. 9-11.

After winning the first two  games of the weekend in the double-knockout tournament,  they came up against Arthur and were unable to continue the winning streak and suffered their first loss.

The girls rallied for a win in their next game, leaving them to meet Arthur once again in the championship game.

The game was a definite nail-biter. Unfortunately the girls lost.

“What these girls did win was a whole lot of confidence in their ability to play baseball,” team officials state.

Under the coaching of Kim, Greg and Ken the Atom girls excelled in their baseball sense, skill, league play and Sportsmanship.
