“They went out hitting and never gave up!”
Playing with a very young team, the Central Whidbey Little League majors softball squad fought until the final out, ending its season Saturday in the district playoffs.
While North Whidbey advances, having topped Central in back-to-back games, the Coupeville contingent showed consistent growth from day one to closing night.
The Thunder got strong pitching from Gwen Gustafson and a pair of doubles from McKaela Meffert during the district playoff clashes.
“Couldn’t ask for more honest heart and soul,” said team mom Paula Peters.
On a side note, the team’s brain trust — manager Mike Peters and coaches Lark Gustafson and Aaron Lucero — had a chance to work with daughters Sofia Peters, Allie and Maya Lucero and Gwen Gustafson
“Very cool these gents could coach their daughters,” Paula Peters said.
