June 2017 – FC STARS Gain Valuable College Exposure in Beautiful Steamboat, CO!

Fifteen girls spent a week in beautiful Steamboat, CO attending the Triple Crown Mountain Magic College Exposure Camp.  The 16U – Bode sent 9 of their 12 girls to the camp, and 14U Hoeven sent 6 of their 12 girls.  They gained valuable experience learning what college coaches look for, participating in drills conducted by college coaches, and playing along with some very good players. 

The popular Mountain Magic Tournament was held after the camp, and both teams had great showings!  The 16U – Bode team earned a spot in the Gold Championship bracket, and finished 7th overall out of 19 teams.  The 14 – Hoeven team took home some hardware in the competitive field, earning a 2nd place finish in the Silver Championship.  Congratulations to these two teams! 

March 2017 – STARS teams have good showing in early Spring tourneys!

The 14U – Linder and 14U – Hoeven teams both played in the IPGSA Tune-Up Tourney and competed well!  The Bode 16U team played in the Greeley USSSA tournament. 

The 14U Hoeven STARS went 4-2 during the tournament with wins against some tough teams, including Synergy, ProSwing Blue and Kryptonite.  They ended up with a 2nd place finish, falling to ProSwing Blue in the finals, who they beat previously! 

The 14U Linder STARS went 1-2 the first day, only to lose to the eventual champion, ProSwing Blue in the first round on Sunday.  All in all, it was great to get out on the dirt in early March!  

The 16U Bode STARS went 2-2 on the weekend, but advanced to the gold bracket, only to lose to the eventual champion in the semi-finals, and ending with a 3rd place finish out of 14 teams.
