The U12 Hawks Softball team, who were crowned the Connecticut State Champions two weeks earlier, traveled to Pittsfield, Massachusetts on July 22 thru July 24th to try to capture the title of New England Regional Champions.  The Hawks, lead by Head Coach Monica Mueller, gave it their all and brought home the runner up trophy.

The tournament began with two pools of four teams, playing a round robin, and ending with a four team double elimination.  On Friday, the Hawks beat Randolph, Vermont 11-0 and beat Halifax, Massachusetts 3-2.  On Saturday morning , for the final pool play game, Newtown lost 1-0 to Rochester, NH. With three teams having 2-1 records at the end of pool play, Newtown found themselves as the number one seed in their pool based on tie breakers.

The Double Elimination Round began Saturday afternoon with four teams still left. Newtown, Halifax, Stamford, and Litchfield, NH. Newtown first squared off against its in-state rival Stamford.  The Hawks came back from a 3-0 deficit to win 4-3.    After Litchfield beat Halifax, Newtown would play Litchfield in the winner's bracket final to get into the championship round.  Newtown again came back after trailing early to get a thrilling 5-4 victory.  The Hawks now awaited the winner of the loser's bracket Sunday afternoon. Halifax eliminated Stamford on the final game on Saturday.

Sunday morning Halifax beat Litchfield to win the loser's bracket and get into the championship round.   Now Newtown would only need to win once to clinch the title, but it was not to be.  Halifax gained a 5-1 victory in the first game Sunday afternoon.   Then in a winner-take-all final game, the two teams were tied 1-1 going into the bottom of the 5th inning. 

Halifax was able to push a run across and held Newtown in the top of the 6th to seal the victory, the New England Regional Championship and an invitation to the U12 Babe Ruth World Series in Alabama. 

The Newtown U12 Hawks knew they had given it their all and most importantly had a terrific weekend, both on the field and at the Hotel, that they will remember for a long time.  The coaches and parents of the Newtown Hawks were extremely proud of all of the girls.

During the weekend of July 15th-17^th, the U10 Newtown Hawks Girls Softball Travel Team, bruisedand battered, beat the heat and held it together to take 2nd place in the Babe Ruth State Tournament held in New Milford.  
 
On Friday, the Hawks got off to a slow start and lost their first game in an upset to the Southbury Heat with a score of 10-8.  In the 1^st inning Rachel O. and Joy M. teamed up to drive in the first 3 runs but Southbury returned fire and tied it back up in the bottom of the inning.   Southbury outscored the Hawks by 2 runs in the remaining innings which led to the 10-8 loss.  Abby P. went 2 for 3 including a hard flyout to shortstop and Julia A. ripped a double and drove in her first RBI with her first at bat with the team.
 
On Saturday, the beginning of double elimination, the Hawks offense, refocused after Fridays Nights loss, rebounded and tore up the field with a 22-1 revenge victory against Southbury.  The Hawks started off slow with no runs in the first 2 innings but soon thereafter started pouring on the heat with 7 runs in the 4^th and 13 runs in the  5^th.  Allie E. held Southbury to only 4 hits while Shannon C. knocked in 4 RBIs and Jacklin G., Rachel O. and Zoe B. each drove in 3 runs a piece.  Jaclyn M. who drew 3 walks, was hit by a pitch, stole 4 bases and, scored 4 of the runs. 
 
In the second game of the day against New Milford, the Hawks’ bats, still smoking after the Southbury game, continued to rip hit after hit with 17-4 victory.  In the 2^nd inning Jacklin G. got the delayed steal sign and stole home following the throw back to the pitcher from the catcher.  Tess M. and Zoe B. teamed up to drive in 9 of the 17 runs, Rachel D., Jaclyn G. and Allie E. each drove in 2 runs a piece.      
 
On Sunday, the Hawks started out their long day with a 10am game against the 2^nd seed Stamford Stars.  The game was pretty tight with an 8-9 score going into the 5^th when Stamford pickedup 3 more runs.  The Hawks could not get any additional runs in the top of the last inning and lost by a score of 8-12.  Amanda B. got on base each of her 4 plate appearances, stole home and drove in 2 runs.  Rachel D. and Joy M. battled well on defense.
 
In the second game of the day at noon, the Hawks met up with the Norwalk Zoomers.  The entire game was tight but the Hawks held tight in the excessive heat and pulled out a 9-7 win.  Shannon C. went 2 for 4 with 1 RBI, Rachel D. stole home on a wild pitch, Amanda B. went 3 for 4 with 2 RBIs and Julia A. knocked in 2 runs with 4^th inning double.  Stand in player Olivia M. grabbed a walk and stole a base at her first at bat with the Hawks.
 
With the win against the Zoomers the Hawks immediately headedto the State Finals against Stamford.  It was the 3^rd straight game of the day for the Hawks in the 95 degree heat.  In the 2^nd inning Tess M. hit a line drive double down the 3^rd base line which drove in Allie E..  Amanda B. followed it up with a single which brought in another run.  The Hawks offense was stifled during the 3^rd and 4^th inning, but in the 5^th inning Tess M. and Shannon C. each reached 1^st on a singles.  With 2 on, Zoe B. hit a triple down the left field line which drove in Tess and Shannon.  The 5^th inning rally was not enough to overcome Stamford and the Hawks lost by a score of 7-15.   
 
The Hawks team is managed by parent Head Coach Scott Beals and parent Assistant Coaches, Keith Cheh, Jeff Murabek, Jeff Moccio, and team photographer Sue Gouveia.   Sarah D. was absent from the Tournament.
