The Bruins are Playin' for Addison


What a week this has been! When the Bruins won the 5th Region, they had their mind made up that they were "playing for Addison" at the state tournament. To honor her, their Region Champ shirts were yellow and they had yellow wrist bands made with her initials on it. The proceeds from the t-shirts and yellow bracelets will go towards purchasing a plaque for the Bruin dugout in Addison's honor. On Monday the Bruins made their second straight appearance to the state tournament, but this time it was a win for Game 1 againist George Rogers Clark, 9-0. It was great to see Addison's family there cheering the Bruins in a sea of yellow. Wedensday night the Bruins played againist Apollo, it was a very close game until Matt Nicholas hit a Grand Slam in the 5th inning to put the Bruins up by 5, I am sure that made Addison smile! The Bruins did go on to win that game 6-2. Friday night they are scheduled to play St.X in the semi-finals. I am convinced that they are going all the way because they are Playin' for Addison! I will have several more pictures to come, but for right now, this might be my favorite picture that I have ever taken. This is my brother Taylor and his best friend Hunter right before the start of Game 1. The Bruins are Playin' for Addison!
