Japan faces another tiebreaker game, against Aussies, and this time come out victorious! It was a 12 inning battle fought well by the Aussies, but in the end they fell to defeat. However, it wasn't a total loss for Australia, as they win the Olympic Bronze medal by defeating Canada earlier in the day. Japan is now getting ready to face the US for a chance to fight for the Olympic Gold medal. :D
Scoreless game all the way to the top of the ninth, in a tie breaker with Natasha Watley on second base. Catlin Lowe gets up to bat to start off the inning with Jessica Mendoza on deck and Chrystal Bustos following. Great excitement in the USA dugout as Lowe rips a single up the middle to score Watley. Mendoza steps up to the plate and gets on by a walk. Bustos is next to bat and on a hitters count (2-1) hits a 3 run home run! USA fans scream and cheer as she jogs around the bases. Japan manages to get out of the inning and score 1 run in the bottom of the ninth, but it was not enough to win the game.
Being here in China is a very great experience. I went and watched team USA play China this morning, it was a great game and was a lot of fun to watch. I have taken many pictures and hope you like them. Click on the picture to see more pictures.

When I was 12 years old I started a website called savesoftball.com for the purpose of getting softball reinstated in the Olympics. I created a petition for people to sign which was submitted to the IOC to show them that there is great interest in softball all over the world and it belongs in the Olympic Games. I am now a sophomore at Park Vista High School in Lake Worth, FL and although softball has since been removed from the Olympics my desire to play softball has never been greater. My goals are still the same, to one day represent my country playing softball in the Olympic Games. I realize a lot of things have to happen in order for me to achieve my goal. I must continue to improve as a softball player and more importantly as a person. I still hope that softball will be reinstated in the Olympics. I strive to do my best in school and on the field. I hope to continue my education and my softball career at the next level. I started this blog page for the purpose of keeping college coaches informed of my accomplishments on the field and in the classroom.
