Mayhem starts the season

Madison Mayhem started their spring season at the "Ice Breakers Tournament March 12th -13th. Mayhem provide a strong showing placing 4th out of 12 teams from 4 different states. Morgan lead the pitching efforts going with three wins and only one loss for the weekend. She had a total of 22 strike outs for the tournament. She had an earned run average of only 1.33 and only gave up five walks in 4 games. Her efforts at the plate lead to a batting average of .523 and delivered the game winning hit in a close one with Impact 99.

Mayhem as a whole really showed that most the team had not played together. Team unity will be a key to their upcoming success and will be a major focus for the coaching staff. Team manager Russ Bratton delivered the four keys to victory to the team after the heartbreaking defeat to the Lady Jaxx 4-3 to eliminate Mayhem from the tournament.

Mayhem's Key to success
  • Eliminate strike-outs
  • Make the routine plays
  • Pitcher's reduce walks
  • Execute on all base running
