Merino Ballbreakahs

Emma comes to us from the beautiful country of New Zealand. Although she's just learning (the hard way sometimes) the rules of American Kickball she's still one of her team leaders in spirit and sportsmanship! On one of her first plate appearances she managed to easily make it to first base safely. On the very next play she was so determined to make it to second base as well that she sprinted down the line and beat the throw to second arriving safely - at least for a moment. We won't go into specifics from there but she made sure to have a smile on her face and her teammates cheered her on as they gave her high-fives for an effort well done! In true Underdog spirit her teammates backed her up and gave the umpire a good-spirited argument of, "Come on ump, give her a break, she's from New Zealand!"
