But with the work ethic exhibited by the youthful charges, Shankman remains confident anything can happen in a single-game elimination format. Anchoring the club in its turnaround has been Grade 9 shortstop Annalise Mathers, who also plays club ball. All for the better as they reeled off four straight wins and finished the regular tier one season in a three-way tie for first place in the Central Division with Unionville High and Brother Andre Catholic High with 4-2 records. “We have a lot of Grade 95 who aren't ball players by nature, but are good athletes and they’ve been learning as they go along. They run the bases aggressively and they have good hand-eye co-ordination,” Shankman said. “Now the girls are hitting the snot out of the ball.” In doing so, thesSpanans face Huron Heights Secondary (Newmarket) in their quarter-final game today at Richmond Green in Richmond Hill during the league's one-day playoff tournament. Win and you advance. lose and go home. Shankman said it was just a matter of the players, many of whom were new to the game, getting accustomed to the sport and its pace. Not to mention plenty of practice in which they've made extm trips to the hitting cages. “She’s our little field general out there,” Shankman said “She keeps everyone in the game." Through the first two games, the Spartans were lambasted and generated just two runs. But like turning on a switch, the Spartans’ fortunes did an about face.
