Accomplishment: Winning the Charlton Invitation U10 Fastpitch Softball Tournament

Key to Awesomeness: The team played against Leicester on Saturday morning and won. Then they played a Wachusett team on Saturday afternoon and lost. They then beat Spencer, Worcester, Wachusett again and then Charlton and won all four games. Even with the one loss, they came in first and won the tournament. What makes them awesome? They've been practicing since January and really worked hard this weekend to win.
