    The Sterling Girls All-Star softball team will play for the World Series Championship tonight on ESPN2 at 6PM Central time. Our little town will be on the world stage tonight and we could not be prouder of these girls and what they have done so far. I urge you to watch and cheer these girls on. They are excellent ball players and are a joy to watch. They are undefeted in World Series play this season and have out scored there opponents 58 to 4. Lexi Stapeles is hurling the ball at nearly 70MPH. They have all three of their pitchers for tonights game against Waco TX. It’s going to be a great game.

    Congrats to your girls!!! As a former fast pitch player myself it’s not as easy as it looks. They looked great in the one inning. Every batted ball just dropped in perfectly.

    Thier coach Eric Staples is a friend of mine. I have watched him work with those girls all year. In the off season he would have them doig work-outs and nurturing them into the championship team. Always with a positive attitude,and telling them to have fun and enjoy themselves. They are all a bunch of great girls with a great coach. Everyone in the area is very proud of what they have done. They will never forget this, and no-one can take away the fact that they are world champions. Not many of us can say that!
