This is the
circle of hell known as (20th ranked) North Central. Clare led off the second inning of game one
with a double off her high school teammate Vlasta; the two of them have been
going at it since forever. Alyssa
followed with another double and scored on a single. The score was 2-1 Elmhurst going into the
bottom of the seventh inning.
The first batter
for North Central made an out; the second was down in the count before
singling. Then came the line drive that
barely cleared the fence for a walk-off North Central win. There’s no coming back after a loss like
that, at least not for mere mortals.
Elmhurst dropped the nightcap, 4-1.
And now we wait for
the weekend, which starts off at Carthage College in Kenosha. A perfect name, Carthage, signaling great
victory or defeat. The Romans would know what to do, and we better, too.
