Meigs Co Softball Enjoying Fun and Fantastic Season

Decatur, TN-(WDEF-TV)

Playing high school sports should be fun.
And of course it’s always fun when you win.
The Meigs County softball team has won a lot this season, so of course, they’re having a good time.
Sounds like a story for fun-lovin News 12 reporter Brian Armstrong.

Everything seems to be going right for Meigs County softball as they’ve won 20 straight games.

Said pitcher Lainey Fitzgerald:”Mental game. I think we knew we had to come out and play like we knew we could play.”

Meigs is set up to make a deep run in the playoffs thanks to their dominant pitching.

Said head coach Jeff Davis:”And I’ll just be honest with you. We’ve got three aces. We’ve got a freshman Sadie Scott. That’s nice for most teams. So we can’t complain about our pitching last couple of years.  We’ve had, um, just like one or two. And this year we have a whole staff that we can depend on. So it definitely helps having arms and everybody being able to go out there and throw.”

Added Davis:”The girls just want to have a good time. I mean, that’s their first goal is to have fun. You know, most people I know Summer ball for most of ’em is there’s a lot of pressure. It’s high level and we, we, we do our best to win. We work hard when we, when we work, but we also like to have a lot of fun.”
