Apr 20 Another perfect day for a game. The inter-league at the Patriots was a game of frustrations. There was no score going into the top of 4. Fife had left the bases loaded in the 1st & 3rd innings & left 2 runners on in the 2nd only to be scoreless. Stewarts pitching to washington was frustrating as well. She had 6 k's in the 1st 9 batters. Alison gave up her only 2 hits in the 4th inning. Fife finally busted the game open in the 5th scoring 6. with 4 hits and 2 bunts.

Finally in the bottom of the 8th leadoff hitter Ami Gran (Jr) got a 1 out hit, Alison struckout after a great at bat & no. 3 hitter Sammy Faust (Soph) hit a very long deep fly ball to center that the fielder couldn't handle. Result, Gran scores and game over. This was a big win for the Trojans because we had lost to them prior.  This wont be the last time we'll see Steilacoom & it'll be even a bigger game next time. Next up is a league game at Foster on Weds 4-25.

May 1  Fife had to win this home game against the Patriots to clinch a share of the league title with steilacoom. Fife came out and showed their focus and desire. The Trojans busted the game open in the 2nd with 5 runs followed up by 6 in the 3rd. Alison Stewart again showed her dominance by pitching a 1 hit shutout. The middle of our lineup is getting in the grove .. our 2-3-4-5 hitters went 7/11 and when that happens it usually means runs. Fife Wins 11-0. They are Co-League Champions for the Season !! Congratulations

May 3   Fife went on the road to play (4a) Bethell. It was one of those games thats makes a coach nervous... bus arrives at fife 1/2 hr late.. very long bus ride in traffic....(there go's our batting practice).. playing a 4a school that's hungry for a win.. It had a recipe for disaster. The Lady Trojans stepped up to the challange and started the game off with 1 run in the top of 1st off an rbi single by Kayle Greiss (Sr) scoring Faust. Bethel Started the 2nd with 2 singles & nobody out and promptly had the coach (me) wondering. Alison struck out the #3 batter on her killer change. Devon (Sr) threw out a runner at 3rd on a steal attempt. Stewart then struck out the #4 batter to end the threat. That was really the only offensive threat the Braves could do the rest of the game. To start the 2nd, OF Catrina Fagundes (Sr) opened with a single only to be driven in by Stewarts double, her 2nd of 4 hits. Devon Whittlesey had the big day hitting 4-4 & 2 doubles. Fife also had 2 hits each by Faust, Littlejohn, Greiss and go on to win big 14-0. Stewart had 8 k's in 5 innings  next game will be a non league game at home with Orting on Tues 5/8 followed up by a district seeding game against Steilacoom, in a much anticipated game.   Stay Tuned It'll only get better!!!!

May 8   Fife had a rematch with the Orting Cardinals. This was a non league rematch of a earlier Nisqually league game, of which Fife won (at Orting 3-1). Fife came out on top again by the score of 6-4. It was a zero -zero  score going into the bottom of 3 , until the  Lady Trojans busted out for 4 runs  followed up by 2 runs in the 5th to make it a 6-4 score. Orting scored a run in the 5th & 6th, due to some sloppy defense on our part ??. in the top of the 6th the cardinals again made it interesting scoring 2 runs. 2 runs weren't enough as the trojans came out on top. Top highlights of the game were Ami hitting 3-4 with 2 rbi, Carley Littlejohn going 2-3 (and again putting up a great defensive game). Devon went 2-4 along with Malloree Langdon (So) going 2-4 with a double and 2 runs.

Lets hope the 12 hits we got today will carryover into 12 (or more) hits tommorow at Steilacoom. This is an important game, for the winner will get a bye in the 1st round of the District playoffs on 5-19.

 May 9   Fife lost their district seeding game against Steilacoom yesterday 3-1. It was a tough game start to finish with the Lady Trojans making a late rally only to come up short.

May 15  Fife was able to pickup up last minute game against (4A) District contender Bellermine Prep. We traveled on the road and forgot to bring our game. The Lady Trojans played some sloppy defense and gave up a couple of big homeruns.

We have just 3 days of practice to iron out some weaknesses & play at 10:00 against Klawoha in a loser out game. Lets hope the team is focused and ready to play.

May 19  Fifes season came to a bitter end today. The Trojans lost in a tough battle with Klawoya 2-1. It was a frustrating game due to the fact that we left multiple people on base and couldn't get that critical hit to tie or take the lead. With the score at 0-0 in the 3rd, Kristina Stadleman scored on an rbi single by Stewart. Klawoya answered in the 4th with 2 singles followed by a big double by their #5 hiiter. She was subsequentially throw out at 3rd trying to stretch it into a triple. That was the only scoring in the game. In the bottom of the 4th & the bottom of the 6th we left the bases loaded only to come away scoreless. It was a very tough loss, but it was one of those "classic games" that we'll never forget. The Lady Trojans had an excellent season finishing 17-4. With the returning core, we should be strong force again next year. More details from the Fife Free Press
