Final Updates:
Round 3 of the playoffs began under cloudy skies on Thursday, October 25th with a tough 7 - 2 loss to a very tough undefeated Bainbridge team. After rain delays, our next game was played on Friday, October 26th against Loganville High School and resulted in a heartbreaking 6 - 1 loss to end our tournament play and bring our 2018 season to a close.
We are proud of the way our girls played this year. At all times they represented themselves, their team, their school and their community in a positive manner. We wish the best to those who have played their final games for Walnut Grove and will be moving on to bigger venues and opportunities. For those who will be returning, the countdown starts anew until the start of next season and the opportunity to play softball with their school friends, represent their school and work hard and try to make it back to Columbus again next year. Good job and good luck Lady Warriors! Always be #warriorstrong.

Senior Night - September 25, 2018
Senior Night was held on September 25, 2018 during our last home game of the season to honor our two graduating seniors. Tents were set up for both Madi and Chasiti with displays of mementos from their past. Prior to the game, they were honored on the field by their fellow Lady Warriors teammates and coaches. The seniors from the opposing team were recognized as well. However, this night was about Chasiti and Madi. At game time, these two deserving players took the field to start their final regular season home game at Walnut Grove High School. Madi settled in at shortstop and Chasiti was in control of the circle and the battle began until the dust settled 7 innings later. The score of the game won't be remembered for a long time but the memories of this special night and these two careers will be remembered for the rest of their lives. As a fitting tribute to these two fine young ladies, we were treated to a spectacular sunset that evening which seemed to represent the sunset of their careers here at Walnut Grove but with the added promise of a coming new day on two new college softball careers and many new and exciting adventures. Both Chasiti and Madi will continue their softball careers at the next level in college next year. Madi will be heading to Auburn University and Chasiti will be heading to LaGrange College. We wish them the very best as they begin their new adventures and we hope to see them often. We know they will always be Lady Warriors and will continue to represent the Warrior legacy well as have so many before them. Good luck Madi and Chasiti! Always be #WarriorStrong.
First Responder Night - September 11, 2018
The Walnut Grove Lady Warriors held their inaugural First Responder Night on Tuesday, September 11, 2018 to honor the men and women of our community who fill those roles. A custom t-shirt was designed and sold and proved to be very popular, selling out several times. Shane's Rib Shack in Monroe sponsored shirts for our players, coaches and first responders. There was a good representation of first responders in attendance encompassing local and state law enforcement, the fire department, and emergency services. We had several pieces of emergency equipment on display including an air ambulance helicopter from Air Life Georgia. Acopia Home Loans sponsored a hospitality area providing food and drinks for those in attendance. All first responders in attendance were recognized on the field including our own players and coaches with first responder family members. A color guard unit was provided by the Walton County Schools JROTC and a stirring rendition of the national anthem was presented by our own Lady Warrior pitchers, Chasiti Wade and Emily Byers. The ceremonial first pitch was delivered by Walnut Grove High School Resource Officer James Stephens. Also in attendance was Lt. Al Miller from the City of Covington Police Department representing injured Officer Matt Cooper. In addition to a 50/50 raffle, donations were collected and about $1500.00 was able to be presented to Lt. Miller to take back to Officer Cooper and his family. Note that the scoreboard in the photos is lit with Officer Cooper's badge number in his honor. The night was truly a community event!
Youth Night - August 30, 2018
Youth Night was held at Walnut Grove on Thursday night, August 30th. Special guests included the Youth Middle School softball team and many of the young ladies who attended our Kids Camp during the Summer. Three brand new bicycles were given away to three lucky young ladies! The evening was sponsored by Escape Plan Georgia from Loganville. To conclude the night, our Varsity Lady Warriors played an always tough Greenbrier team and earned a well-deserved 9 - 1 victory.
