Softball team hits it out of the park in awesome season

The National Press Club softball team capped off its best season ever by competing in the MMSL post-season tournament. After beating a team from the National Journal in walk-off fashion, the third-seeded Press Club lost to Comcast Sports Net and USA Today, who were the top two seeds in the tournament. Each loss was by just three runs. During the tournament, Press Club member Ken Giglio was given the 2011 Dale Solly Award. It's the only individual award given out by the league, and is named after the former WJLA reporter and anchor. The league created the annual Solly Award for the league member who best exemplifies the spirit, friendship and sportsmanship that Dale brought to our softball Saturdays.
