UK Softball Team in NCAA Regional Finals
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jeanie and I are enjoying the NCAA Regional Softball games here in Columbus, OH. Our Cats are in need of a double dip win over no-losses Ohio State today to win it. The assignment is not an easy one for our Wildcats.
UK lost to Brigham Young 2-6 in the opener, but avenged that loss by sending BYU home last night 4-2 after beating Canissius 7-0. OSU is tough, having beaten Canissius and BYU in the tourney. .
The beautifully refurbished OSU stadium isn't close to capacity, maybe approaching half full during Ohio State games. There are probably 100 Cat fans, who are mostly family to the UK players.
It is very common to be able to follow your team in the wonderful game of softball. It is so nice to see these outstanding young lady athletes wearing the blue and white and representing our University of Kentucky so well.

OSU ends the Girls' season.
Congratulations on a fantastic season girls. You did things that haven't been done and this team will be well on it's way to doing even bigger things in the future. You were the pioneers.
Great season!!!

Right Troy. OSU is a strong team this year and the Cats came back to tie at two in the third, but OSU had a big fifth inning with two home runs and three additional runs to 2-5. Then in the top of the 7th, OSU scored twice to make the final 2-7.
Congratulations to the Kentucky Wildcat Ladies!
The left fielder of the Cats is Annie Rowlands and she is from Hilliards. Her sister, Meagan, had previously played for Ohio State and coaches Columbus Hartley now.

UK fans should enjoy the Dispatch writeup of yesterday's NCAA Regional Championship game between UK and OSU.
http://www.dispatch.com/live/content...O.html?sid=101
I also would certainly appreciate those of you who might consider purchasing a copy of my first attempt at fiction- "Grandparents and Softball". It costs around $11 and is available through Joseph Beth and other popular bookkstores. Just a hint that it contains comments about UK and Anystate University which could well be OSU.
Our WCN friends know us well and will believe that promoting the book was not my ulterior motive for this post. Jeanie and I honestly love softbball and particularly enjoy watching our grandaughters play.
