MMHS Winter Camp








The camp has started off rocky due to massive amounts of rainfall in Saint George.  What was supposed to be a two day camp has been pushed down to one day. However, that meant that Anthony could join us on the trip. We left when he got off work. For dinner we ate at Lonny’s Boy BBQ. The staff forgot they took our order and was surprised we were even waiting.  At least the food was good when it finally arrived. We then drove to the lodge we were staying. A few hours in we felt the entire lodge shake. Our bed and also the loft Braiden was staying in. After a quick internet search we found out there was a 3.5 magnitude earthquake near Springdale UT which is where we are staying. 


First game Braiden started catching. He was 5th batter. First at bat he got a double. Struck out the second. The score was 1-1 until the 5th inning. Braiden’s hit was the only run scored for Maple Mountain. Needless the say the pitching was a problem once Blake stepped off the mound. MMHS lost 7-1


Game 2 Braiden got moved up to 4th batter. His first at bat he struck out. This game he again was starting catcher with Chase on the mound. Second at bat was another strike out. His third at bad he was hit in the helmet after a full count. The second game they lost 2-1. Overall Braiden played well in the field. His hitting count used some improvement. It was a fun weekend and a great start to the upcoming season.
