The final is over. Softball players Arrows Ostrava are Czech vice-champions
“We wanted the series to be longer, but it didn’t work out. Joudrs defeated us in the attack. Our goal was to stay in the middle of the table, we are very happy for the finals. I hope that the result will have a positive effect on the players and we will be able to defend the second place, “Arrows coach Pavel Burkovič evaluated the first season in the extra league, to which the Ostrava team returned after nine years and immediately reached the final.
To another surprise, it was close on Saturday as well. In the third mutual duel, the Arrows players led 2: 0. However, Šimůnková, the back polarist of Pražanek, took care of the reversal. After her three-meter shot, three of her supporters ran for the points, the fourth arranged time for the home run after an untapped throw. “It was a very important situation. I knew they were full of targets, and it worked. A good throw flew over two shots and it has to get to the fence for me, “Adéla Šimůnková described the home turn to 4: 2.
Coufal fired the home run in the next inning. “I did well in batting all season, it graduated at the time,” rejoiced Julie Coufalová. The Joudrs scored six points in the third inning. They won the match 10: 2 and won their eighth extra-league title.
“We definitely evaluate the whole season positively, no one expected such a success. The players from Joudrs played us at bat, they had many hits. We can definitely be stronger next year, “said Tereza Kubicová from Arrows Ostrava after the final series.
