Miracle on diamond for GetTeamGear pitcher

The 2009 softball season for GetTeamGear.com had been going well. A third place win in their first outing was a great start to the season. The team followed that tournament with a first place win on March 14 including a birth to Worlds in Detroit, September 24-27.

However, tragedy struck last week at the team's most recent tournament in Salt Lake City. Team member and pitcher, Steve Ward took a line drive shot to the forehead knocking him unconscious for several minutes. Steve was immediately taken to the hospital with severe fractures to the face. Reconstructive surgery was very successful and was released just 4 days later. The team is very thankful for the thoughts and prayers from those close to the team and in the softball community.

We are happy to report that Steve is doing well and is expected to make a full recovery. Steve also plans to accompany the team to their next tournament in Delta, Utah.
