Missed Chances


By going to Paul Konerko’s last game Sunday, Clare missed a two-hour bus ride from Valparaiso to DeKalb, where the Crusaders played a double header.  Things could have gotten a little interesting for my daughter.

One of the games was against a school she was interested in attending early on.  Then we heard stories about the coach, nothing especially pleasant.  But I will say he always showed up for his daughters’ high school games against Morton.  In fact, he was there for Clare’s last high school home run during regionals.  She tied the game in the bottom of the seventh with a monster shot off of one of coach’s daughters.  Oh, they both play for him in college.

I doubt that home run would have helped Clare’s chances to make the team.
