Sectionals Begin...

Nothing like celebrating Memorial Day at the old ballpark - and that's just what the Knight/Urbanski clan did last night - opening night of the South Bend Baseball Sectionals. I arrived early to take plenty of photos - knowing that if we lost, there would be no 18 year olds posing with smiles for mom.

But we didn't lose!!!! A big win over Michigan City, which now sets up a Clay/LaPorte clash in the semi-finals on Thursday night. We lost to LaPorte three weeks ago in the bottom of the 7th, so we know we can do it - but it will take everything we've got.

Here's our guys looking on as LaPorte beats Washington in Game 1.















.... a little serious at first, but then some fun with the camera -

...and being cheered on by his biggest fan - Nolan.















...and finally, celebrating a big WIN!!! (Kevin's the last one in the background - making his way to the celebration from 375 feet away).
