The end of one chapter leads to the beginning of another

Hey Hillcat Fans!

   I have had the opportunity to blog for the softball team for the last two years. It was hard to keep everyone updated at times, but it has been an amazing experience getting to relay all the softball news to the great fans that we have.
   This year has been a huge roller coaster. Starting at such a high point when we went 30-0, to have a low point where we were really struggling to find that team we were at the start of the season. But, we managed to pull it all together in the end and make it to the national tournament. We got even more blessed as to have it at our home filed here in Claremore. It was an amazing experience to have all the support from our family, friends, and the community there. Although we couldn't quite pull out the wins in the end to make it to Georgia, I could not be more proud of my team. We came along ways this season and we finished with everything we had. I'm so thankful to have gotten to finish my career here at RSU with this great group of girls.
   My seasons of playing the game I love are over, but there is a whole new chapter in my life ready to begin. I will be finishing my student teaching this fall and will hopefully be in my own classroom teaching by this time next year. I do not know where to begin on the thank yous. Thank you to my family, friends, all my coaches, and all those who have supported me through my career. Without you guys I would not have even been close to making it this far. Thank you to all my readers that have made this experience so fun.  Thank you to the great group in the athletic department here at RSU, you guys are amazing! And thank you to all of our fans, without you guys there would be no Hillcat softball. You guys are the ones that kept us pushing when times got rough.
  
Sincerely,
