Congratulations to our 2009 Division Champions!

Our softball season ended in grand style with the crowing of our 2009 season and tournament champions.

In the 12 & Under Division, Lori Reed's Ice, sponsored by the Borgie Churchwell Benefit Fund, defeated Willie Ward's No Names, sponsored by the Soroptimists, in the championship game. Congratulations to the Ice for also posting the best season record in the 12U division.

The 10 & Under Division crowned co-Champions this season. Coach Craig Parker's Fog, sponsored by Northern Redwood Federal Credit Union, took the regular season title. In the championship tournament, Jeff Denny's iGuanas, sponsored by Coast Central Credit Union, won the final game, forcing a share of the 2009 10U tourney title with the Fog.

And congratulations to all the great players, coaches and parents who helped make our 2009 season one of our best ever.

Thanks!

Congratulations to our 2008 League & Tournament champions!!

We have had a wonderful (and rain-free for a change!) spring softball season here in northern Humboldt County. All of our teams, regardless of their final records, have played like champions, learned a tremendous amount about the game and about teamwork, and hopefully made some great friends along the way.

We'd like to take just a moment and congratulate our 2008 Mad River Girls Fastpitch Softball Association's Season and Tournament Champions.

In the 10 and Under Division, our season champions (best record at the end of the season) are the Fog, coached by Mike Rice and sponsored by Hank's Coffeehouse.

The 10 & Under Tournament winners this season are the Swinging Monkeys, coached by Rob Flint and sponsored by Alves, Inc.

In the 12 & Under Division, the Black Widows, sponsored by Soroptimist International, and coached by Melissa and Willie Ward, captured both the the regular season championship and the tournament championship!

The 16 & Under Division's regular season was won by Evergreen Pulp's Donkers, coached by Jeff Denny. The Donkers also won the tournament championship game for the 16 & Under division capping a 14-0 season.

Congratulations to all our outstanding softball players and teams on a successful and wildly fun 2008 softball season!
