I hope to have them backnext year.”When asked about the players, Coach Burrola ishopeful. “We’ve got some good young ball playersthat are coming along great, including eight eighthgraders, which is quite a lot.” Val Burrola was thetop pitcher on the squad, with Samantha Frankand Samantha Nelson joining the pitching staff.And hitters? “They’re all coming along together.We teach them to drive the ball, not hit the ball.They get a hit and come in and say, “Next time I’lldrive it, coach.” And next year there will be a newsoftball field on the south corner of the new trackstadium.
