Jaiden Sample – Dirt Diamonds
This is Jaiden’s first ever season playing softball. Her hard work and determination to get better have showed in a huge way the last week. Jaiden has quickly earned herself a starting spot in the infield and has become a huge threat at the plate. In 4 at bats she has 3 singles and 1 walk. She has been successful in every steal attempt and can really blaze the bases. Jaiden is always cheering on her team and refuses to quit. We’re so proud of how far along she’s come and excited to see how much she progresses this season. Keep up the great work Jaiden!

Zoey Billot – Fighting Squirrels
We have watched this kid grow from a 6U baby to 12B beast. She is usually our loudest and proudest Squirrel and you can hear her from a mile away, whether its cheering in the dugout or calling from behind the dish. This week Zoey stepped up big with 2 big hits in one game, a single and a triple at a super critical time to help save her team from a loss. She is super smart on the bags and always makes her first base coach’s job easy. Behind the plate, She threw out a girl at 2 and always keeps her opposing runners and coaches on their toes. She works really well with her pitchers and has been having fun getting to call some of her own games. It’s been fun to watch this kid grow and we are really proud of the softball Squirrel she has become. Let’s go Zoey!

Camryn Scanson – Dirt Diamonds
Camryn had an incredible week on the diamond! She pitched 4 innings striking out 5 and giving up 1 earned run. Cam stepped up in both games to shut down the final innings, securing the win in one game. She was also strong at bat going 3-4 this week with 3 singles and an RBI. Camryn’s ability to step up in tough situations and come through for her team really proves what kind of a player and teammate she is! Great work Cam!
