We are very proud of Lorelai and her toughness. Due to Durango being such a small size, there are only two city league softball teams in her age group. We are very similar in skill, experience and ability. However, to get more opponents we also play some teams from neighboring towns. Most of these girls play year round and travel for tournaments often. They are GOOD! They pitch fast!!! It can be quite intimidating for many of our girls who have never even played before. Well, last week we played Farmington and they faced their fastest pitcher yet. Lorelai was so nervous but she stayed in the box and rode it out, and eventually walked. However, she did get hit in the head in the process. Shook her up a little but she's so tough!! Don't worry, after this incident we bought her a faceguard to attach to her helmet. She didn't get to take a base when she was hit because the umpire thought the ball had hit her bat but I think the bat hit her helmet when she was knocked down and that's the metallic sound you hear.
