Remember when Bendy, i.e Michelle Chatfield, hit four triples at Alliance Nationals and made the all tournament team? Trophy arrived. 😁.
@michellechatfi1

Wrapped up the weekend 3-1 against top competition with the one loss being a 1-0 loss to Williamsburg Starz Bunn. London Slade led the way, hitting .500 while 2023 Sadie Kittoe hit .444. Thunder pitchers combined to strike out 29 batters!
Best of luck to our seniors who are heading off to Virginia Tech (2), Univ. of Maryland, Wofford and UMass Lowell! We can’t wait to see what you do at the next level!!!
Former Thunder players Ivy Rosenberry (OSU), Shanel Stott (UMBC) and Lyndsey Evix (UMBC) together again! And ready to square off in competition in the NCAA Regionals. Good luck to all of you!!!
Please welcome Amaya Carroll (2022 UMBC) to the Thunder Gold team. Amaya is a very good pitcher who also plays infield and outfield and has a big bat!!
@amaya_carroll
Congrats to Caprice Bohmer on her commitment to UCONN!!! Such a great player and great person joining a top notch program! Things happen for a reason and we think UCONN is where you belong!
@capricebohmer
Shout to our HR hitter
@ThompsonErynn
for being the best teammate a player could have and supporting her team all weekend as she recovers from surgery. This 2025 is a keeper who will be back to hitting bombs soon!!
This 2024 stud Riley Gallagher won’t be at Scenic City but she is doing something cool instead. She is playing at the USA Softball HPP National Selection event in TX. Go get ‘em Smiley!!!
We want to thank
@thealliancefp
for a great National tournament. The format, atmosphere and competition was great! We are proud to have finished in the Top 25 and to compete in Tier 1! See ya next year!!!
Coaches…you are missing out on this stud 2025 OF (“the cannon”) who led the team with a .667 batting average on the first day of Alliance Nationals! Don’t miss her on field D23 in the winners bracket at 3:45pm. Daring runners to run...
@Kayla_Dunkerley
Please welcome back our rock star outfielder and newest DI (Le Moyne) commit, Kayla Dunkerley. There is no one who can lock down centerfield better than this one!
@Kayla_Dunkerley
Let’s start the day by welcoming back our ace, 2025 pitcher, Caprice Bohmer. Caprice is a UCONN commit. We believe that the best is yet to come for Caprice and we can’t wait to watch her dominate this season!
The season has come to an end. Made it to the Elite 8 at Alliance Nationals Tier 2 but came up one run short. This was a great team with a great group of seniors!! Back at it in September my 23rd Thunder team!!
Last winter practice for this “family”. Now on to high school ball and then back on the field for a summer of high competition! We are about to see a lot of hard work pay off!!
Congratulations to our power hitting infielder, Erynn Thompson, on her commitment to RMU!
@CoachJexx_RMU
you are getting a good one!! Way to go
@ThompsonErynn
There were too many swings and misses to post all of them. But here is one from 2025 Caprice Bohmer. 14K’s in 6 innings while hitting .500 with 4RBI is a pretty good day!
@capricebohmer
If you don’t look like this after a game, how hard are you really working? Madi Wade, Brynnen Williams and Riley Gallagher leaving it all on the field!!!
@madiwade2024
@smileyriley2024
@BrynnenW2026
We are thrilled to welcome 2026 MIF, Brynnen Williams, to our Thunder Gold team. Brynnen is a dynamic infielder who is a triple threat from the left side of the plate. Welcome back to the Thunder family Brynnen!
@BrynnenW2026
Need a 2025 pitching who throws in the 60’s with a curve, rise, drop and change? Need a pitcher who also hits bombs?
@capricebohmer
is your girl! Check her out at Top Gun this weekend!!
So thankful to have four of our Thunder alumni come back to practice this week to throw live to our current players! Thanks to Trinity (MD), Kyra (MD), Lauren (Mount Olive) and Maelynn (Ship). So great to see you all!!! It’s great to see the past helping future grow!!
This team is on fire!!! 3-1 in regionals at Alliance Nationals and playing the best of the best in Tier 1 tomorrow! There is no place we would rather be! See you at 9am on D25 tomorrow!

It’s time to start welcoming players to the 24–25 Thunder Gold team. Let’s start with a very talented outfielder,
@Harlie_Reich
. Harlie Reich is a speedy 2027 who coaches are not going to want to miss out on!
Congratulations to our former Thunder player Shanel Stott on committing to Radford for her fifth year after 4 years at UMBC! Tear it up in VA Shanel!!!!
Don’t know how this talented, crazy fast, 2023 outfielder is not committed. Someone is going to be lucky to get Bergen (
@Bneedles2023
). Fast, great range, strong gap hitter, great grades…
