7A AHSAA Softball Championships - Thompson vs Hewitt-TrussvillePerhaps not the most dominant pitcher in the state tournament but certainly one that understands the ability of her fielding mates on the Thompson softball team.
Thompson takes home its first state championship in 23 years after winning consecutive titles in 1998 and 1999. “I knew my team would get on to give them a chance,” she said. “Don’t be too aggressive and give them a chance. It was going to be a tight game anyway, we weren’t going to blow them out. I couldn’t score without my teammates. Without the bunts and the sacrifices, I couldn’t have been able to do it.”
“It was crazy, I was like, ‘we’re up two with two outs, this about to be the best pitch I throw,’” she said. “Probably wasn’t my best pitch, she hit it, but we got our outfield back there and we just won state.”
