| ATHLETE OF THE WEEK (click here for past winners) This week PQSports.com is honoring Kendall Brundrett of the 10UPQ Lightning All-Stars. Kendall pitched great at Nationals in New Mexico, with the team tying for a fantastic 7th place finish. Kendall is league age 9, one of the youngest pitchers in the 10 and under division. She showed her talent with her outstanding pitches, but also demonstrated incredible poise by not allowing the opposing teams to “rattle her cage”. Her calm and confident demeanor, along with the positive and sincere encouragement of her teammates, make her an all- around team player. At nationals, the 10UPQ Lightning team out-scored their opponents 73 to 10. The team took first in pool play before heading onto bracket play. All together the team played 7 games, and finished with a 5-2 record. The highlight of Kendall's pitching was a tight game against West Covina, the eventual National Champions. Kendall pitched a complete game against a great team with great hitters and kept them to a 3-0 win. All of the girls played their hearts out, and congratulations are certainly in order for the entire team on a great run through nationals!
