[Photo courtesy of Orange Coast College]Orange Coast College's softball player Kursten Evanski (No. 11 in the second row) told me that she's proud of the team's performance yesterday against Riverside Community College.
A little background on the lady Pirates: the team have been battling injuries all season and the team only has two pitchers Sarah Munson (No. 5 in the first row) and Maddie Page (No. 17 in the second row).
The girls practice and play hard everyday trying to get better - even if they are not going to make the playoffs and the season is coming to an end.
The lady Pirates are still looking for its first Orange Empire Conference win but trust me, it's not due to a lack of effort or talent.
Here's what Evanski told me about the game.
Me: hey I just saw ur facebook status...does that mean u guys won ur first conference game?
Kursten: no we lost 7 to 8 but it was amazing. everyone had heart the whole game they all really wanted it. sarah pitched her soul out yesterday, candice (No. 19 in the first row) hit a three run
Kursten: home run which brought in me who hit a shot out to left center and kiele (right of Evanski in the second row) who hit a hard ground single. then sarah got hit in the inner tigh. and it was so nice to
Kursten: here the opposing team get chewed out because of how well we played. it really turned some heads. but if i could replay that entire game again
Kursten: i would. im so proud of these girls for all of those 7 am practices and it finally showed what we are capable of.
Kursten: I could honestly and would brag about that game all day. people would get annoyed but i don't care :-)
Kursten: and it wasn't just one person who contributed. it was EVERYONE!!!!!!!
The lady Pirates' next game is at home against Saddleback College on April 13 at 3 p.m. Everyone come support the ladies and cheer them on to hopefully its first OEC win.
