The Road to Koshien, Round 2


On Sunday, Okisho had its second game of the tournament to determine who will represent Okinawa in the big Koshien tournament in August. The enemy: Futenma High School. Our team got off to a slow start. Futenma put two points on the board before we even recorded an out! Okisho put runners in scoring position every inning, and hopes were high, but each inning ended with the score the same: 2-0 for the bad guys. Until the fateful 7th inning! Okisho put 4 exciting runs up, and held on for a 4-2 victory! Round 3 takes place this Saturday at 9am (I will be working, but might leave work early to take it in) against Urasoe Kogyo. I have heard that we should be able to beat them, thereby advancing to a quarterfinals matchup on Sunday the 8th! Anyways, hopefully the boys will make it all the way to Koshien!
