Fairfield 12U Softball Team’s Tournament Run Ends In Regionals

FAIRFIELD, CT — The Fairfield 12U All-Star softball team’s run in the Eastern Regionals came to an end last Thursday with a 3-1 loss to the Lower Sussex All Stars from Delaware. Connecticut took an early 1-0 lead and threatened to score again when Delaware turned a bang-bang double play.

Anna Gedacht went the distance, scattering 12 hits to keep the game close and Elena Ohe turned in the defensive gem of the year, landing herself atop the Sports Center top 10 plays on Thursday night.

The team of 11-12 year olds had the best run of any Fairfield team dating back to 2012. They finished the postseason with an impressive 12-2 record. The players, coaches, families represented Fairfield and Connecticut in awesome fashion during the tournament.
