Cornerstone Softball.... What A Journey

Tonight Cornerstone won our 8th Game to go to 8-2 the best start in Cornerstone CDCSL history. It has taken many years to finally get a team that is a true team, and lord knows we have had many bad seasons. Whats so great about this team the talent thats part of it, but really it's this.... when there are extra players and these players do not play they do not pout, not at at all,the extras cheer on and really support each other. This is my 5th year on the team and have seen myself grow as a player but more importantly as a person. A good example is tonight I was hitless and was at the plate with bases loaded with a 3-1 count and i wanted desperately to get a hit to make my stats better but knew if i walked a run would definitely score. Coach said "take it he's wild" so i thought about the team and putting the team first and a run scored as i was walked. was it an important run....no , as we won 19-1 but i believe that this team exemplifies that atittude team first, self second. I am proud to play with all the players on this team who put team first. This team is a true example of a christian softball team. I really think we have a shot to win the whole thing, but more importantly is the bond we share as a team.
I would also like the thank the devoted fans who support us especially Mary and Jim they are there every week and we truly appreciate it. If you were at our sunday service you saw the Holy Spirit move and Cornerstone has truly grown into a spiritual adult stage, and this is true in the softball team as well. God is Alive and Moving at Cornerstone....come join the fun
