There is no humorous subject line for this post. Christine Hodill, the main organizer for the local kickball league and related events was killed last night around 2:30AM in a hit and run accident. Many of us have met or had spoken to her recently regarding kickball or even at the pub crawl this weekend. Even after the game last night we were talking to her at MacDinton's and I spoke with her for a short time after she had expressed interest in checking out our running group after she had met several of our members this weekend.
Christine was instrumental in handling the organization logistics and did a LOT of work putting together everything for the charity pub crawl this weekend and was mentioning last night that they raised more than ever before and how the PAL charity would be able to use the money for new equipment.

TAMPA - Police officers are scrutinizing Nissan Maximas and Altimas
today, following an early morning hit-and-run that killed a pedestrian.
The victim’s acquaintances, meanwhile, are publicly mourning their
friend’s senseless death.
Christine Hodill, 28, of Tampa, was struck around 2:30 a.m. at West
Cleveland Street and East Moody Avenue, one block south of Kennedy
Boulevard.
Hodill may have been trying to cross Cleveland Street, officers said.
A police statement says the vehicle failed to stop, struck Hodill, and
then fled the scene. Hodill died at the scene.
The Nissan was dark in color, possibly green or black, according to
investigators. “It had a spoiler, rear view mirror missing and front end
damage,” said police spokesperson Lisa Parashis.
Anyone who spots such a vehicle is urged to call the Tampa Police
Department or 911.
Hodill’s friends are publicly expressing their feelings in comments that have been posted online.
“Christine was a good friend. Always in a good mood, fun to be around,”
wrote Matt Johnston on TBO.com. Johnson said Hodill was passionate about
kickball and was a local representative for the World Adult Kickball
Association.
“We will miss you in the kickball community,” he said.
