re: I wish someone would have asked Kim how surprised South Carolina lost

Here is a tale for you. I knew Kim’s father, Les Mulkey. We played softball on different teams. I am from Independence. We played Dixie Youth baseball in those days. I was a bit older than Kim. Anyway when Kim was 12 she played in the Hammond Dixie Youth league. An all star tournament was held in Independence. Kim was the shortstop for one of two Hammond team. The Dixie Youth District Director from Gonzales, Mr. Berthelot, disqualified her because of sex. He said girls were not eligible. Les hired my friend Ron Macaluso who was one year out of law school. The tournament was halted while a hearing was held. Kim was ultimately allowed to play. I wonder if she remembers any of that.
