BY BENJAMIN R. KIPP SPORTS CORRESPONDENT THOMPSON — Seven games are in the books for the Tourtellotte softball team, and what current head coach Brooke Nici thought would be an obstacle this season has turned into a team strength, while what she thought the team would do well at has so far been a weakness. “Right now we’re batting .379 as a team, which I didn’t think would happen and right now we’re making three errors a game, which I didn’t think would happen either,” she said. The Lady Tigers are currently 5-2 with a 9-3 opening day loss to Killingly and a 6-5 setback to St. Bernard the only blem- ishes on the young season. “I’m pleasantly surprised with our record,” said Nici. “We’re off to a really good start. I’ve been glad we’ve been hanging in there and I think we’re heading in the right direc- tion.” Surprisingly, the team offense has been the one thing Nici thought would be difficult, but so far seven games in it’s the one thing that’s carried the team. Photos courtesy Justshootmephotos “I’m really, really happy with the way we’re hitting the The Tourtellotte softball team, backed by strong hitting and pitching, has ball,” she said. “We’ve scored 59 runs in seven games and opened the season with an impressive record of 5-2. we’ve only given up 29.

Defending WMT champion Doug Coby is a registered VMRS competitor as are Rowan Pennink, Ryan Preece, Keith Rocco, Richard Savary and Woody Pitkat. Race No. 1 of the VMRS season was won by Steve Masse and Pennink picked up the victory in race No. 2 this past weekend. Thompson is the third event on the VMRS schedule and it’s any- one’s guess who will walk away with a victory in the 75-lap main event. Joining the Valenti Modifieds will be Thompson’s NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Sunoco Modifieds. The defending champion is Preece who kicked off his title defense on Icebreaker weekend with a fourth place finish. Thompson Late Model driver Glenn Boss will try to make it two in a row after an Icebreaker win. Cam McDermott will try to best Troy Talman and John Studley in the Lite Modified division and Monster Mini Stock driver Scott Michalski and the Xtra Mart Limited Sportsman’s Larry Barnett will attempt to keep their win streaks going after claiming two wins on Icebreaker weekend. Grandstands will open at 11 a.m. with practice slated for a noon start. Qualifying races begin shortly after 2 p.m. with all six feature races to follow. The entire day’s schedule is posted on the Thompson Speedway web page at www.thompsonspeedway.com.
