When @max_knutson23 asks to go ride while @LeiaKnutson11 is enjoying a much deserved weekend off, I couldn’t say ‘YES!!’ fast enough. Same spot 9 years ago… #Gsonmyfeet @KTMUSA @HusqvarnaMotoUS

Fourth place finish at the @PGFnetwork in Peoria as my @CatalystSB_ team closed out the year. I caught 113-131 Bracket game innings in the summer season—1730 pitches. My pitchers and I had only 6 passed balls and wild pitches combined in those innings. We had some great team success and now looking forward to camps and on to fall ball!! @erika_schmyth @sjanssen22 @KFlemm10 @HHSTigerSB @RitterPiper @coachanniesmith @baileyoetting09 @GopherSBCoaches @CoachDeifel @MattMeuchel @Jamie_Trachsel @KristinaMcSwee6 @JoshBertke @CoachPinkerton @CoachRGillispie @Coach_Piv @CoachKristaWood @CoachMcFalls @LauraHeberling @CoachMWright3 @CoachBredbenner @CoachLarissaA @J_Cottrill_ @coachMarino11 @IndStSoftball @AliNowak4 @CoachGregJones1 @AshlynEnglehorn @coachaschilling @MichaelMook9

Colorado had its ups and downs. Battled through a head/chest cold all week but still had a couple great camps and my @CatalystSB_ SD 16u Nat team played well. Proud of them! Below are a few good swings and defensive efforts. In-game transfers in the .7s are getting more consistent. @COSparkFire is always a great time! @RitterPiper @coachanniesmith @baileyoetting09 @GopherSBCoaches @CoachDeifel @MattMeuchel @Jamie_Trachsel @KristinaMcSwee6 @JoshBertke @CoachPinkerton @CoachRGillispie @Coach_Piv @CoachKristaWood @CoachMcFalls @LauraHeberling @CoachMWright3 @CoachBredbenner @CoachLarissaA @J_Cottrill_ @coachMarino11 @Coach_pooch @AliNowak4 @CoachGregJones1 @AshlynEnglehorn @coachaschilling @MichaelMook9 @CatalystSB_ @erika_schmyth @sjanssen22 @KFlemm10 @HHSTigerSB
