PIRATES TO THE RESCUE
Hurricane Sally drenched parts of Florida with “four months of rain in four hours,” Ginny Cranor, chief of the Pensacola Fire Department, told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer last week. Needless to say it left much damage.
Obviously, Pensacola State’s softball team has been unable tp practice on its field, but that doesn’t mean the Pirates haven’t been busy.
“Just wanted to share something that I thought really shows how amazing these softball women are!!” VA Unity-Parker coach Jenny Buzzell-Parker told TLI via Twitter. “PSC can’t get on their field due to damage so the meet every morning and go into the community to help clean after hurricane Sally. Pretty good stuff!”
💪🏼 Resilience! 2020 has been something else! Gotta give some ❤️ to the 🥎 🌎! So many amazing female athletes conquering all challenges thrown their way!
Shoutout @PSCSoftball for leading the way! All week these women have helped rebuild their community after Hurricane Sally! pic.twitter.com/4UJ491llZU
