It may still be February but to the Cadets at the United States Air Force Academy it's SOFTBALL TIME IN COLORADO!
Playing under sunny skies and temperatures in the high 40's, the Falcons kicked off their 2008 intramural season yesterday and by games end left no doubt that we are in for one heck of a competitive season this year.
As would be expected, to a player the Falcons seemed to be in great condition and playing at mid season form already.
The Flyers were lead by Cadet Second Class Tyler Perry who pitched one of the best games in the history of the Academy. Perry struck out 10 in route to throwing the first no hitter of his storied career as a Falcon.
Along with Perry, Cadet Fourth Class Michael Oliver came ready to play yesterday and chipped in 2 RBI's to go along with a run scored. Oliver also received the games Talon Award following several spectacular plays at first base. When asked to comment about his first Coed game Oliver said " it's definitely slow pitch but it was pretty fun."
Following yesterday's game it was announced that the winner of the Spring League at the Academy will be offered a shot at taking on America's team the Apples. "It's the least we can do to help the cause " said AGFHOF Don Bernitt as he extended the offer via satellite phone to the Academy. " We look forward to kicking their butts " added Bernitt.
Rest easy America, your sons and daughters may be enduring the challenge that is life at the United States Air Force Academy, but we can take comfort in knowing that when it's all said and done they will not forget to HIT THAT BALL!
How bout them Falcons!

As the 2008 Presidential Primary now rounds third and heads for home, the long awaited endorsement by the Apples has been announced.
Speaking from his secluded off season home, AGFHOF Don Bernitt confirmed earlier wire reports that the Apples have decided to endorse Condoleezza Rice. " That's right, she's our pick and we look forward to attending her Inaugural Ball when she becomes President of the United States"
When asked to clarify the reasoning behind selecting Rice who is not a candidate this year Bernitt said " Well she should be, she has what it takes to bring our country together." Bernitt continued laying out the values of Rice that led to the Apple endorsement by adding "For those who are looking for a candidate who has shown the commitment to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States she as our Secretary of State has the experience to do just that." Bernitt then added, "for the academics amongst us, Rice earned a Masters Degree from Notre Dame and then her Ph.D from the University of Denver before serving as Provost of Stanford University, and finally for the democrats who are swayed by style over substance she is an African American woman."
" What more can you ask for?" said Bernitt as he was peppered by questions about the endorsement. " Of course I realize that Condie isn't going to be elected this year" concluded Bernitt. " But, when John McCain picks her to be his running mate remember where you heard it first."
In other off the field Apple news, it has been announced that the team will hold open tryouts this coming Wednesday evening. Time and location of the tryouts will be available on the Apple blog Thursday morning.
