A Sweet Season for Nisivoccia Softball

Nisivoccia softballGoing into round 2 of the playoffs, the Nisivoccia LLP softball team was anxious to advance on to the elusive third round by beating Cohn Reznick.  Cohn Reznick beat Nisivoccia LLP at the end of the regular season to keep them from capturing the first place title, which made Nisivoccia LLP even more motivated to take them down.

The game started out with both Cohn Reznick and Nisivoccia LLP putting up 3 runs in the first.

In the second inning both teams put up another 5 runs.

In the third Nisivoccia LLP held Cohn Reznick scoreless while tacking on another run and taking the lead.

The next two innings were scoreless for both teams.

In the sixth Cohn Reznick put up four runs while Nisivoccia LLP failed to score.

It was down to the final inning and Nisivoccia LLP held Cohn Reznick scoreless.  We needed three runs to tie and four to win and advance, but only scored one.  It was a hard fought game, but in the end Cohn Reznick made the plays they needed to, to win the game.

“We had a great season overall, and I can’t thank the guys enough for sacrificing their personal time to compete hard in every single game we played,” James Wood, 2017 coach and Semi-Senior Accountant, said. “Nisivoccia LLP is lucky to have these gentlemen, who represented the firm well this season through their 1st class sportsmanship and team mentality.  I had a great time managing the team this year, and it’s due to having a solid team of competitive individuals looking to win every time we took the field.”

James also thanked Mark Jensen, former coach and Director of IT, for helping keep team morale up throughout the season.

“Lastly, I would like to thank you, our fellow co-workers, for the support and interest throughout the season.  We are looking forward to another season next year,” James said.
