In a repeat of last weekend, this weekend's ASA State Games Tournament ended in a rainout.  The Edge went 5-2 for the weekend at Chuck Klein Sports Complex (4-1 in tournament play).  After falling to the Midland Magic in the final game in the winner's bracket Sunday afternoon, the Edge were left in second place as bad weather moved in and ended the tournament.

ASA Diamonds of the North Ends in a Rainout

The ASA Diamonds of the North Showcase tournament ended due to lightening on Sunday in Portage.  The tournament was called just as the Edge team was taking the field in to face the Raiders.   Earlier on Sunday, the Edge dropped out of the winner's bracket after a disappointing two run loss.  Although they were unable to avenge the loss, the Edge offense had put up 49 runs, while the defense allowed only 12 for the weekend.

The team will compete in the ASA State Games next weekend at the Chuck Klein Sports Complex in Indianapolis.  Game times will be posted as soon as they become available.

Another Good Day in Evansville!!

 

The Edge performed well again putting another undefeated day in the books.  Team chemistry and hot bats from top to bottom made the team hard to handle for all opposition today at the Stringtown Community Club in Evansville.  The Edge defeated the Outkast this morning 9-2 to win Pool B.  They started the tournament off with an early afternoon 6-1 victory over the Lady Aces; followed by a 4-0 win over the Mayhem.  Congratulations to Lauren Nacke, who hit one out in the third game of the day.  She cleared the centerfield fence by at least 30' hitting the utility pole.  Good job Lauren!! 

The Edge will be back in action tomorrow at 11 AM against the Magic, who are also undefeated for the weekend so far.  The remainder of tournament play will be held at Central High School.  Good luck, Ladies!

October 20-21

Orland Park Pumpkin Fest

The Edge was back in the Windy City this weekend for a chilly Orland Park Pumpkin Fest.  Hannah Zimmerman and Cassie Loweth started the weekend by winning the first coin toss and the Edge was on a roll.  The ladies faced some good competition and showed what they're made of by holding their opponents to only seven runs and scoring 30 for a 5-0 weekend.  Coach Smith moved players around and shook things up all weekend to give college coaches a good look at the diversity and strength in the Edge roster. 

Defensively there were few errors and the team looked solid.  Offensively, the bats started off a little slow in a couple of games, only to come alive and hit big in later innings.  Alicia Garrison had an in-the-park grand slam in the final game of the weekend.  The Edge was in the running for best finish of the tournament after their last game.  We will update you as soon as final results are posted.

Unfortunately, the team had a late game on Saturday and the first game of the day on Sunday, so many of you may not have been able to make it.  Follow the links for detailed Game Summaries and Tournament Photos to see what you may have missed.

     
 

October 12-14

Homer Hawks Fall Exposure Tournament

The Edge traveled to Elgin, IL this weekend.  A tough battle with the Beverly Bandits Gold ended in a 4-2 loss for the Edge, their first of the fall season.  In the second game, newcomer Maggie Cooper took the mound.  The Edge was off to another rocky start, down 2-0 after the first inning.  In true Edge fashion, the ladies turned on the bats and tied up in the second, and with solid defense held their opponents scoreless the rest of the game.  The final score of game two was 7-2, Edge.  The third game they came out swinging again for a 7-1 victory.  Congratulations to Cassie Loweth who had two homeruns this weekend and Lauren Nacke who delivered a solid stand up triple.  Coach Smith said that he was encouraged and excited about the performance this weekend.
