Coach Don Peters received the call on Thursday morning.
The girls varsity softball team were named league champions and tied for first place with Troy and Farmington.
Also, the team added one more game before they go into their district playoffs on Saturday.
They will play at Hartland High School next Wednesday in a double-header game.
‘Hartland had an opening. We added the game to the schedule,? said Peters.
The team is up to the challenge to face a team they have never played before.
Last Wednesday, the girls split their double-header with Goodrich.
‘In our first game, we scored nine runs in the first inning and hung on for our dear lives. It was kind of fun,? said Peters. ‘They have an excellent team.?
Goodrich is state ranked in fifth place in division two.
The girls were ready to compete with Goodrich and took the games as a way to get ready for the district playoffs.
‘I figured going in there if we got a split, we would be happy,? said Peters. ? It is pretty hard to beat a state ranked team twice. They were really good. They are ranked that for a reason.?
The Wolves won the first game, 10-9.
Sarah Altene was the winning pitcher and pitched for four innings. She threw three strike outs, ten hits, nine runs, and four earned runs. Bailee Braunreuther pitched the remaining three innings and had two strike outs and no earned runs.
Kara Wandrie was the leading hitter with a triple and two RBIs. Katie Smith also had two RBIs.
Taylor Hasselbach, Shantel Uballe, and Braunreuther had one RBI.
The girls lost the second game in five innings, 13-1. Hasselbach hit a home run and had one RBI for the game.
The split brought the girls record to 23-15. The games on Wednesday at Hartland begin at 4 p.m.
The girls have home advantage going into the playoffs. They will play Waterford Mott this Saturday at 10 a.m. The game is held in field #1.
‘The Waterford schools, Mott and Kettering are always very good teams. We hope to play very well. We’re excited about playing them. It will be very challenging.?
