Our season gets into full swing this week as we compete in the Cougar Classic at Kit Carson Park. Our 3 pool play games are against Div I and Div II teams.
The fields at Kit Carson were really soaked after the heavy rains the last few days, but I'm sure they will do whatever they can to get the games in. There are 40 of the best high school softball teams in San Diego participating in the tournament.
We play Monday at 7:00 against Mt. Carmel, Tuesday at 3:00 against Torrey Pines and Thursday at 3:00 against Patrick Henry. The players should at the field ready to warm up 1 hour prior to each game. Parking is always an issue, so plan to arrive early to find parking. Be sure to dress warm. It is going to be really cold this week, especially tomorrow night for the late game.
The schedule calls for each team to play 3 pool play games and then start single elimination bracket play on Saturday. The weather could play havoc with the schedule with more rain forecast for this week.
There will not be a van for Monday's 7:00 game. There should be a van for Tuesday's and Thursday's games. Based on the response to Coach Elderts text about riding the van last Friday, it looks like we may not be able to accommodate everyone who wants to ride the van. Hopefully some of the players will be able to find their own rides to some games.
We will practice at the normal time on the days we don't play this week.
