This is the first article in a series of six. Team Tuesdays articles are an idea that's being straight-up ripped off by a great league, Wiffle in Southeast Michigan, that has among some of the best articles and websites of any wiffleball league in the country. So why not try it here?
The Terrorhawks in 2012 were a struggling franchise that finished their season with a 5-12 record. The 2013 season has so far gone much better as they are currently 4-4 and have shown to be a pretty strong third place team in the standings. They are pictured above (from left to right) as Daryl Pullin, Josh Smith, Andrew Hankins, and Julie Meadows. Together they've rebuilt a franchise and are having a blast with each game they play. Daryl has been guiding the team with his veteran wit and dependability on the field as well as setting up and taking down the fields. Andrew has really come into his own at the plate and has had some successful outings on the mound. Julie has grown to a decent hitter who gets the team started off on the right foot at the top of the lineup. Josh captains the team and pitches the majority of the time, he also walks a lot. Lets meet the Terrorhawks.
