Had to brag a bit, my girl and her team finished 2ND at TCS world Series in San Diego and finished 5th at PGF, she hit 2 over at TCS and one over at PGF. 12U here we come
This kid is a spectacular athlete...and a great kid!
I've known Tiara since she was 7yo. Tiara and Maddie were teammates for much of their time playing together in rec ball, including regular season, all-star, and select teams (parting ways in TB was a bummer). Tiara has ALWAYS been a dominant force on the field - in the circle, or in the box. She is strong, athletic, dedicated, focused, and one of the most deeply-driven young athletes I have ever met. Her abilities at an early age provided a great example for Maddie to push herself right from the beginning of her time in the game. It comes as no surprise to me that Tiara continues to be very successful at the upper levels of this game. I expect amazing things from that kid as she continues her journey.
Additionally, SyndreSoftball is a great dad, coach, and friend. He was a big influence on Maddie's early development, and is an all-around class guy.
