Fastpitch Priorities

We're in a pre-season high school tournament this week. Last night most of our seniors missed the last two games we had because they had senior luau to go to. We all gave them a hard time about it ~ "where's your priorities? You can eat Lau Lau later ~ we have some games to play!" LOL ~ well, our underclassmen did a great job and won both games. So we finished on top of our pool and start elimination play today. Our first game today is at 4:00...and I have a wedding to go to! Auuggghhhhh ~ I so want to go to the game, but I already told my friend that I'd be at her wedding. Plus, she lives off island so it's not like I get to see her a lot. So now I'm in a situation in which I'll miss games. It's only pre-season, but it's a good size tournament and the girls are playing so well it's exciting to watch. I don't want to miss it!

Anyway ~ I called the head coach this morning and let him know that I will, in fact, go to the wedding. But, I told him to tell the players to win the first game so that I can be there at the 7:30 game. If they lose that first game they'll play right after at 5:45 and I'll miss both, but if they win that first one, I'll be able to make the second! I'll be at my friend's wedding awaiting the phone call with the news on that first game....then I'll know whether I'll be leaving to go to the field or staying at the wedding to eat more food.
