Grand Rapids in Baseball State Final

[JLS 81]

Just wanted to let all the puckheads know that the Fabulous Thunderbirds have made it to the 7AAA finals by beating Hopkins 6-0 and BSM Red Knights 5-3 with a ninth grader Gabe Wood pitching a 3 hit shutout against Hopkins. Than the kid came back in with the next game when its 5-2, bases loaded, no outs in the sixth inning of the BSM game and got out of the jam. Gave one up in the seventh but notched a win and a save in 1 day. Not a bad day for a ninth grader. GR will face Lakeville tomorrow at 5:30 PM at Midway. Let's here it for the outstate kids! Austin Tavis (GR hockey forward) played great today as did Jake Magner and Brett Hedlund (GR hockey defensemen), heck the entire team deserves a solid round of applause. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p074.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... =jls81>JLS 81</A> at: 6/17/05 6:19 am<br></i>

Way to go Grand Rapids.<br><br>But...ah...Thunderbirds? When did that happen? What..did somebody see the movie Grease too many times.<br><br>I didnt think the political correctness disease spread that far up Highway 169.<br><br>Whatever they call themselves, good luck. Its good to see the kids developing their athleticism on the basebal field in June instead of some foggy ice rink.<br> <p></p><i></i>

6 kids transitioned from the rink to the diamond. Like Packerboy said it is good to see kids out playing something other than 12 month hockey.<br><br>Austun Tavis <br>Brett Hedlund <br>Sam Shaw <br>Micah Hovet <br>Stephen Davis <br>Mike McInerney <br><br>The name is still Thunderhawks (sad to say) although I hate using it as it should still be Indians. <p></p><i></i>

Congradulations on reaching the state final! You should be proud! Glad to hear guys like Hedlund and Tavis made it that far. Good guys who work hard, they deserved it. <p></p><i></i>
