Perfect in Week 3

The Monarchs returned to their winning ways with a bang, claiming victory in all three contests during Week 3 of the winter season.

Monarchs Black scored three runs in both the first and the second inning, coming away with a 7-3 victory over the Timberwolves #1 team. Black banged out nine hits, including a 3-for-5 night by starting pitcher Stachys McLoud that included a solo homer.

Monarchs Red played the second Timberwolves team, and pulled off a nice 4-0 win. M-Red used four pitchers in the game, giving up a total of two hits in the contest. Lead-off hitter Brennan Nelson had two singles and two RBIs.

In the final game of the evening, Monarchs White faced the Yankees, scoring five times in the third and then holding on for a 5-2 victory. WIth two hits and two walks, Matt Lusby led the team's offense during the game. Starter Keary Austin contributed four innings of shut-out ball, including seven strikeouts.

Way to rebound, gentlemen. Keep up the good work next week.

Google Calendar(s)

For those of you interested in a Google calendar for the Monarchs, you now have a choice. Not only do we provide a Monarchs calendar, but there is now a calendar dedicated to the Development squad. (Thanks Jodie Trana for the timely suggestion).

We'll even provide instructions on how to add one (or both) of the Monarchs calendars to your account.

If you are wondering if subscribing to both calendars might be confusing, here are a couple of bullet points:

Most smart phones allow you to set entries from different calendars to different colors
The only items that are duplicated between the two calendars are practices or special events. For example, you'd see two practices on Sunday at 3:30pm, one for each team.
All Development items have (DEV) at the end of the description, i.e. Monarchs vs Derby (DEV)

If you subscribe to both and find yourself scratching your head, you can always remove the "other" calendar from your phone display. Enjoy!joy!

Twitter Time

If you use Twitter, make sure and follow @MidlandMonarchs. If you don't have an account, we'd like you encourage you to create one. Coach Nelson will occasionally be using Twitter for general team announcements, and the more players and parents we have on board, the better the communication.

If you choose to be non-tweeter, you can always check the latest feed here on the website.
