Brisk winds couldn't keep the Southwest team from clinching the City Championship in a 6-1 battle against South. This makes them UNDEFEATED against Minneapolis teams!
Kal is now up to 141 strikeouts! Kal Harris and Lindsey Bartholomew were recognized as the team's Seniors. Both have played Varsity for all their time at Southwest- Kal for 5 years and Lindsey for 4 years. They will be missed, but not quite yet. We still have games to play! Join us Thursday, May 27th at 4:00 for an exciting contest at Jane Cowles Stadium, home of the Minnesota Gophers Fastpitch team. The Lakers will be playing against the winner of the St Paul championship! Mark Hvidsten has pictures taken at the South game last week for sale on the SportsEngine website!

This means that the Lakers have defeated every one of the city teams!
Rounding out a sweet day for the Harris family was an in the park home run by Freshman Rory Harris. The Harris household will be celebrating tonight! There has been a LOT of softball lately, so updating the website has fallen behind. There is too many highlights to cover them all, but here is a few high points in the highlights from the last crazy week!:
#2 DeYoung shows how to lay down a bunt!
Once again, the Lakers defeated Washburn on our home field to retain possession of the coveted Doughboy. This trophy is awarded to the winner of the Southwest/Washburn game at Pershing and will (as usual!) remain with Southwest.
Some awesome pitching by Kal Harris, including 19 strikeouts, NO runs and only one hit demonstrated our offensive dominance. Some solid hitting and base running, including an over the fence RBI home run by Megan Smith closed the deal. Way to go Lakers! |
