Colten played his first year of WBBA baseball this year. It's a lot trickier to hit the ball when it's another kid your age pitching to you! He did great, though, and he was awesome as catcher and he also played first baseman a lot.
Being a catcher is one of the hardest positions. He said when the ball comes or it's a foul ball or something, the face mask is a huge nuisance because you've got to get the mask off while scrambling to find the ball, while also scrambling to race back to home plate to get the runner out. Whew! A LOT of pressure, but he really liked it!
The team did great for their first year. There were a lot of close friends on the team -- so that was the best part about it.
