It Doesn't Matter If You Win or Lose...

It's how you play the game -- and Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace played it wonderfully when they carried their injured opposing team member, Sara Tucholsky, across home plate.

Now this is the news I love to hear about!

Wow! This story gave me the chills and almost made me cry.
Now that's sportmanship....unfortunately not all athletes have it!!You go ladies!!

I'm like totally pregnant and hormonal and EVERYtime I see the tape of the girls carrying Sara around the bases I cry. I grew up going to almost very one of my brother's little league baseball games and feel if everyone lived by these simple rules how much better life would be!

I trust in God
I love my country
And will respect its laws
I will play fair
And strive to win
But win or lose
I will always do my best

I am 56 years old but I played softball all of my life up until 5 years ago. This story brought tears to my eyes and is probably the best story I have ever heard!!!! Awesome women!!!!!!

I am a recent graduate of Central Washington University, and to see that the CWU Girls Softball team has this kind of compassion for other people and respect for the other team is AWESOME! It totally made me cry to hear this story as well as proud to be a WILDCAT! CENTRAL GIRLS ROCK!!!!

I actually got teary-eyed watching this story play out of the women carrying the injured opponent over the bases so that she could make her homerun official.

Let this be a testiment to all athletes in whatever sport.
