It is sad that these girls are being split up. My daughter played on the team that went to Lufkin, scored over 80 runs, and allowed very few. The team gelled very well together(considering they barely knew each others name at the 1st game), and the best talent from Southeast Texas was finally on the same team. It was an amazing thing to watch how the girls played together and got along so well with each other on and off the field, and they seemed to elevate each others play and attitude! I hope that these girls are able to play on the same team togeher in the future. I also hope that those choosing to leave the GTS Shocker group carefully consider the reasons why, and make sure they keep their daughters best interests at heart.
