Rhett made the All-Star team for the second year in a row this year. He was the leadoff or second hole hitter, and the second baseman for South Williamson S.W.A.T. Isn't he tough looking? :)
Bobby was the assistant coach again this year and much to his surprise, the S.W.A.T really took off and had a great season!
There's one word for Bobby's coaching style: intense. But the kids loooooove Coach Bobby!
Rhett was sitting the bench during a blow out game and since he doesn't "sit" well he was swinging the bat behind the dugout. I think he's cute:)
Garrett is one of his team buddies. These two are way too much alike and most of the time they end up in a pretzel wrestling on the ground. It's always full tilt with both of them!
Rhett was a very consistent hitter for his team this year. If my memory serves me correctly, at the last game, Coach Shannon bragged on Rhett for not having any strike outs in the All-Star season. Pretty impressive for a skinny little kid!
Faithful Fan Award goes to Elaina since she attended who knows how many games this year and never complained. In fact, every time her eyes opened from a nap or nighttime she'd say, "Whose game we goin' to?" :) Bless it.
S.W.A.T fought it out for a great season coming in second in the State Tournament. We got beat by Lawrenceburg in our third game of the day. It's hard to ask a bunch of little kids to play that many games in a day in the heat!
We got a sorry little plaque for all our efforts. ( I mean, really, what kid wants a plaque? This was the STATE tournament! You should get a trophy the size of your body for winning first and one at least up to your knee for second place! Come on. A plaque?? gah.)
We finished off a great season and we had so much fun with our team. Out of all my kids Rhett gets the award for competitiveness, will to win, drive, and hustle. Let's apply those and get some money for college, kid!
