We all talked and laughed and had a great time, especially me. I hate to say it, but it was more of a social event rather than a softball game. But after some practices, I got to know all of the girls and love them. At first I only knew one girl, only because she went to my school. I just joined last year, so it's been a year. I play on the Chicago Outburst, a traveling softball team. I used to not mind going to all the games and tournaments I had. I really can't live without it, in a way. It's been a very important part of my life for a long time now. I'd been playing since I was 5(baseball at least, but that's the same thing). Softball happens to be one of these huge chunks. It's like part of me died but the other parts are still living, struggling. And when one of these chunks fall out, my whole heart suffers. These include sports, acting, singing, family and friends, and many other activities.
The Shockers will be in action again on Tues., March 29 as they travel to Lawrence, Kan., to take on the Kansas Jayhawks at 6 p.m.My heart consists of huge chunks of things I love to do. Wichita State is now 16-12 on the season and 4-2 in the Missouri Valley Conference. Kelsey Sterneker took over for Brooks in the fifth, throwing a perfect inning to give Wichita State the 8-0 victory by run-rule in five innings. In the bottom of the fourth inning, Loyola pitchers walked three straight batters and let the Shockers score five runs on just three hits to take an 8-0 lead into the top of the fifth. Just like in game one yesterday, Fortner led off the bottom of the first inning with a solo home run to give the Shockers the strong start that they were looking for, leading 1-0 after one inning.Īgain in the second inning, Wichita State was able to score two more runs off back-to-back home runs by Broyles and Kelsheimer. Wichita State swung the bats well in game three of the series, hitting three home runs on the game coming from Brittany Fortner, Liz Broyles and Cassidy Kelsheimer. This is the second game in a row that Brooks has allowed just two hits and zero runs and is now 8-3 on the season. Jenni Brooks got her second start of the weekend, throwing four of the five innings that were played and only allowing two hits. – Coming off a strong offensive performance yesterday, the Wichita State softball team continued its offensive outburst with an 8-0 victory over Loyola in five innings on Saturday.
