Blaine Bengals Baseball

Zac had baseball tryouts for 2 weeks straight! Each day they participated in different drills, including hitting, fielding, pitching & catching and even base running. He came home from practice evey day exhausted. He would come home, ice his arm, do his homework, eat dinner and go to bed. This was pretty much the routine for 2 weeks!
Basically, how it works at Blaine there are:
2 freshman teams
1 sophmore team
1 Junior Varsity team,
1 Varsity team

Throughout the second week, kids were getting cut from the team. Zac would come home and tell us who was cut that day. I think this was a bit unnerving for the kids!

On the last day of tryouts, at the end of the day, each kid was handed an envelope with their name on it. They were given the choice to open the envelope whenever they wanted. Basically inside the envelope was the news of whether or not you made a team, and if you did make a team, you were then told what team you made.

Zac opened his envelope and here is what was revealed:

He made Junior Varsity as a starting catcher/pitcher! (He was 1 of 4 Sophmores to make JV!) We are SO proud of him!
