In today's messed up world don't take it for granted that someone's day is going well. You see someone struggling, especially a friend but anybody, give them a pat on the shoulder and tell them you've got their back. It could make the difference in their day, hell could even save
Big shout out to these two. They made some game winning, head turning plays this summer and I'm sure they will when HS ball starts in spring. Shaylynn Rogaski (West Geauga HS 2025) and Cara Day (West Geauga HS 2025) are a couple to watch. They've got the fire!

The long ball was on display tonight as Lorelai Nichols (Cornerstone Christian 2026) hit her first OTF HR tonight in our 15-0 game one win.
Lorelai is new to our X feed but not our team. She's an OG Hurricane that missed a year with a badly broken finger on her pitching hand. Now
