does anyonw know the pairings for the region tournament
Why are you just saying it was the Lights? Were they the only people over there? I recall it was crowded where they were at. Fans will be fans..and if it was that bad, I think the ump would have said something. But he did not.
Like I said before, all they had to do was tell the umpire. If they don't complain, then is he supposed to just assume that it is bothering them? Controlling the fans is not his job. It is the host team's responsibility. Most umpires tune the fans out before the game even starts, unless the remarks are such that law enforcement is needed. Then, at the umpire's request, the host team is responsible for the sportsmanship of the fans.
Well it was the Lights voice that the pitcher was hearing.. The fans sitting in the stands didn't bother her. But she did have a visual of them behind the plate and their huge voices.
The Lights are the same people who tried to sue Coeburn LL because they didn't like the way things were being run in girls softball (i.e.--they couldn't put their own team together how they wanted it in local league play, and their girl wasn't allowed to pitch every single game due to LL rules of resting pitchers). Basically, they wanted to make Coeburn LL Girls Softball just like AAU Girls Softball through litigation, and that wasn't going to happen.
They've always been highly belligerent. Nothing they do surprises me at all. I like having talented girls like theirs at Coeburn, but it's a shame when the parents give CHS a bad name.
Did she complain to the umpire then? Evidently not, or the umpire would have had something done.
Well said, thank you. The Lights were the only ones that was haggling the pitcher, or at least the only ones that she could hear. The rest of the fans didn't phase her in the least, but it was hard for her with them right there where she could see them and hear them.

No she didn't complain to the umpire, and I am sure if she had he would have done something about it, but she isn't the kind of kid to complain about things. She tries to please everyone, but that still does not make what they (the Lights) did.
Needless to say, she prevailed and PV won, and she still accumulated 10 strikeouts.
All I can say is that I've seen them do some pretty objectionable things, including challenging HS kids to fist fights at ball games. Really adult--and that reflects on Coeburn as a whole very well... [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif[/img]
They're a sensitive subject for me. I'm gonna shut up now.

i've not witnessed it, but i've had some people tell me that they act like pure idiots at games.
