The Varsity Girl s softball team is made up of fourteen young women, many of whom have played together since the age of seven or so years old. These are a great group of young women and a great group of friends. The Oak Park Girl s team has gone to the Illinois State Championships four times in the past decade. I would put money on their trip to the State Finals this year. They do not chew tobacco, but instead prefer sunflower seeds.
Sunflower seeds come in six different types.
Our girls might have been chewing the shelled form of sunflowers, and or more polite in their discharge. I arrived at the game a half an hour before the official start and wanted to get in as many of my questions as possible, so as to not disturb their game efforts. The girls had apparently already disposed, removed, or secured their jewelry before the announcement. I learned earlier that only two of the gals did their nails. One of the young women did do her nails in a hot red color and further discussion revealed that others did do their toenails when sandals were worn in the summer.
