For the second weekend in a row the YAK Fastpitch were in the championship round and brought home second place. This weekend it was a WFC Fall Showcase tournament that they took second place in. The team that beat them was an All Star team from Fayetteville, NC.
Alicia truely earned her new nick name "Wheels" when she read what the catcher would do after a ball got past her. Alicia was on second base and before her coach had time to signal her Alicia was blowing past her and scoring. Coach Monica said that was the best base running she has seen in a long time.
This tournament Alicia was aggressive at the plate as well as her base running.

Her Time is Coming
Being a long term fan of Alicia , I have been able to watch her grow in her sport. She has been determined, persistant and very patient. Mrs. Daly recently said " I believe God has put her in all the right places because I think her time is coming soon." She has many followers across the country and numerous colleges watching her.
Alicia is becoming more vocal in her game and speaking up for herself. This fan sees a growing maturity and interest in all aspects of the game. Alicia makes many sacrifices that most teenage girls would not make. These sacrifices are made to improve her game.
Along with Alicia's busy class load and intense softball training, she is seeking a volunteer position.

Fall softball and starting of training
The Yak Fastpitch was invited to the Queen Of Diamonds tournament this past weekend. This tournament had some of the best teams from different states in it. This was Alicia's first tournament with the Yak and first tournament since the Colorado Sparkler tournament. Alicia had some great catches at second base and right field. She has been working hard at transitioning to the left side of the plate. She is getting more confidence as a left handed slapper. Alicia even had a play where she slid into second base to try and break up a double play.
Coach Monica was not happy with the team's performance and will be working them hard at their next practice. Coach Monica is willing to help whenever you want extra help. She is meeting Alicia at the High Point Batting Center this week for some one on one coaching.
Alicia will also be playing in the Southeast Guilford Community Center High School League to prepare for the spring high school season.
The Yak's next tournament is the USSSA Junior Nationals. This tournament is a prequalifier for the USSSA World Series in Disney. The team is hoping and working hard to do well and prequalify.
Our next post will discuss some of Alicia's new training equipment.
