The day finally came when I got my varsity jacket. I have been looking forward to this for so long. I worked my butt off for 2 whole seasons trying to get it and i finally did. My freshmen year I played on the JV softball team. Which was probably the best softball season of my career. :)
I was batting well over .500 and hit about 8 homeruns. It was amazing. But then sophmore year came. I never thought I would have made it. Tryouts were hard as usual but I gave 110%. It was almost time for the season to start when the varsity coach came up to me and asked me to play for her and be her DH. I said yes!!
In order for you to be able to get your varsity letter you have to play in 12 of the seasons 20 games. This doesnt sound hard to do but when there are 11 girls and 9 positions, sometimes it can get pretty rough. I started off the season pretty good but I got into a slump which wasn't so good. I worked so hard to try and get out of it. So I sat a couple games which I didnt think would be good because I knew this wouldn't be helping me. Then one game she gave me another shot and I did good, so I was on the roster for the rest of the season and ended up finishing the season with 16 games.

I am looking forward to this softball season as a junior, which will be starting pretty soon!!

Congrats on getting the jacket! I have loved every game I have gone to, and you earned that jacket! I cannot wait until spring again!
Congrats Jilly! It looks nice, but does it taste like cardboard? If it doesn't then I don't want to eat it. :OP
xoxo Migo (my mommy says she likes the jacket - she also doesn't want to eat it)
