Heritage Softball

    What a tremendous softball season Spring 2021 was!!!  Between her school team and her Chandler recreation team, there was not a better coached girl out there!!!  Tatum is so fortunate to have Coaches:
Vega, April, Scott, and her dad.
    I have to admit that things were really intense for a couple months as Tatum had practices 5 nights and up to 4 games in a week.  But she is a TROOPER and saw both teams through.  Her school team finished with an 8-2 record and 3rd in the state--which was a much higher finish than we expected with this young team.  Her rec team was undefeated up until being knocked out in the first tournament round--finishing much lower than we expected😒. 
3rd in the State!!!

    I was somehow appointed to "Softball Booster President" this year for the school team and had THE BEST TIME working with the other moms.  We were able to get funds for t-shirts/hoodies, meals after away games, and an AWESOME end of the year banquet with super cute girl and coach gifts.  Seriously cannot wait to plan next year--weird...I know.  


Brandi, Coach Vega, Kristy, and me:)

    Coach Vega called Tatum the "team nucleus."  As an 8th grader, she showed such confidence, grace, and poise--she shows this on BOTH teams.  She had a great time making great life-long friends and lasting memories.  Tatum was sad that the season was over but is definitely looking forward to a little time off--before heading up to BYU softball camp and team fund-raising for new uniforms this summer.  Can't wait to watch this girl grow over her next 4 years.
