Dawn McGrorty-Ravin's Photo Page

We play co-ed E league. This was our teams second year, and as a new team have been doing quite well, placing 2nd in our city tournaments both 2002 and 2003, and second in our state tournament 2003. Lots of fun! Black eye on Dawn courtesy of an errant foul ball to first.

History: Sean, Jules and I (Dawn) have been playing ball in Homer since we were kids, and have played in the adult league about ten years. As adults, we've played together only a few times. In 2002, Sean decided to start and coach a team, and thought Fugitives would be a great name. He did some heavy recruiting, and the team was born. Most of the people on the team we grew up with and have known 20 years or more. It's more like a family and we all get along great. Also, most of the team is red headed. Homer seems to have a high proportion of reds! Sadly, dad passed away half way through our first season. The team was of great support for us, even putting dads initials on their jerseys in memorial (you may notice Sean's shirt-on one arm it has the initials of dad, Vera and Red, and other close friends we lost that year. On the other arm, injured players that couldn't play the season out. 2002 was a rough year for us up here). Our hats have dads initials and years of life embordered on the back too. He was a strong supporter of ball programs up here. Everyone on the team felt the loss with us. That year was our first year, and we kicked butt! But were unable to place in state. Our second year, we finished with the most wins for season, and placed third in our city tourney, defeated only by two D league teams (we are E league, one step down, but moving up soon!).
