Tulsa Union: Kaiti Dutton video...

Posted May 7, 2010 by Bob Przybylo Comment on this article

The Union slowpitch softball team had never made it past the first round in three previous state appearances. But the girls played the game the right way and earned their first title.

While powerhouses Moore and Westmoore were trying to hit home run after home run on a day when not much left the yard, the Redskins chipped and charged their way to the title.

Had to feel something special was going to happen when the team beat Moore for the first time in school history in the semifinals.

And then Union did a great job of keeping its composure against Westmoore. A tight game throughout, Union was able to get a 6-0 lead and held on for a 6-2 win.

Following the historic win for the program, caught up with Kaiti Dutton for her thoughts.
