Fury 03B wins Gold at U19B Cat Wheatley Memorial tourney in Richmond!!

This past weekend the team participated in the annual memorial tournament hosted by Richmond in tribute to Cat Wheatley.

Cat Wheatley was a long time Islanders player and coach, who passed away in April 2016 from injuries sustained in a car accident. She was just 22 and was volunteering as an assistant coach at the time.

The team played a great weekend of softball, posting 2 mercy rule wins in round robin play, and earning a bye in the first round of the playoffs for finishing 2nd in RR play.

Their first playoff game was a nail biter, winning it by one run 8-7 vs. Invaders 03, which earned them a spot in the gold medal game. In the finals, the team bats were red hot racking up 19 hits on their way to a 14-1 win over the Langford Lightning U19 team earning them the gold medal!!

Coach Robin quote: "The teamwork, cohesion and poise demonstrated by the players resulted in a great team victory"

Congrats to the players and coaches on a very competitively played tourney weekend and bringing home the Gold hardware!
