This Saturday, July 27th, PAL games continue in its second week with three games across softball and basketball. Some basketball games were postponed to be played on August 2-3.
It was a week of vengeance as all Avengers teams won all the games on the schedule for both sports - 13U & 16U Basketball and 16U Softball.
16U Softball Recap
A strong finish for the Avengers, sealing the game early. The majority of the game was filled with walks and base steals due to the low hit count, which played a part in the Avenger’s win.
It was a slow start for both teams racking up 3 outs in the first inning due to the performances of the Skyhawks pitcher Roselyn Sampath & Avengers' pitcher Maurisha Kolas. The opponents on team Skyhawks were daunted by Kolas' fast pitching style. Kolas was the League’s top pitcher for the 2023/2024 Inter High School Softball season.
In the second inning, the Avengers made their mark with 8 runs with only one out while the Skyhawks had 7 runs and 2 outs. The game was influenced heavily by Kolas and her fast-pitching style.
Coming down to the final inning, the Avengers got the win with 4 runs and 2 outs, beating the Skyhawks, who had 2 runs and 1 out. The final score in the end was 13 - 10.
