Rude Pac & Goodfellas Crowned Champions at Palm Springs II

Monday, April 24th, 2006

From the So Cal ASA Website: Palm Springs II

In a re-match of last month’s Championship, Rude-Pac faced the Panteras and with the strength of their whole team, came out on top for the Championship. Rude-Pac went a perfect 6 -0 facing the always tough Primetime Fast Pitch twice, once in the round robin and again in the Sunday elimination to get to the Championship game. The Panteras went 4-2 with wins over the So Cal Masters and Savala Rounders on Sunday.

Goodfellas of Lancaster won the C Classification tournament and their first Alliance tournament. Goodfellas, who played last year as ReMax, won only one game on Saturday and were third in their pool. In their first game on Sunday they had to face Palm Springs Express and then Latin Heat to get into the Championship game. In the Championship, they faced the Young Bucks. The Young Bucks earned their way into the Championship with a 3 – 0 record on Saturday and wins over the So Cal Hustlers and Gamecocks.

Wednesday, April 19th, 2006

From the SoCal ASA website: Click this link for schedule info

The second tournament of the season gets underway this weekend once again in Palm Springs. With the rain out of the Amigos Spring Classic, Palm Springs and Vicki Oltean hope to make it 2 for 2 with ten teams in the A/B classifications and seven teams in the C classification. Both Champions of last months tournaments, the Panteras and Palm Springs Express, will be leading the fields in their respective classifications. Games will once again begin at 9:00 AM on Saturday with Sundays single elimination starting at 8:00 AM. Remember that there is only a grace period for the 9:00 AM on Saturday ONLY, all other games will start on time or ahead if possible.

Also, Mesquite Ave. is still under construction and you cannot make the right hand turn off of Gene Autry Trail. If you are coming in from the Highway 10, make your right at Ramon Road and go to El Placer Road and make a left. This will drop you off at by fields 7 & 8 Make sure that you give yourself plenty of time to get to the fields, especially if you play on diamonds 5 & 6. Those are the diamonds without the snack bar building. Fields 7 & 8 are the fields with the dirt parking lot and snack bar building.

In addition to the single elimination games, the So Cal Bombers and Lumberkings will play a best two out of three on Sunday morning on field 7.

Northern California’s Pacific Coast Tournament Series – April 1-2, 2006

Wednesday, March 29th, 2006

From Fastpitchwest’s “Leagues” Section, filed under “Northern Cal”

We are pleased to post the schedule for this weekend’s Pacific Coast Tournament Series in Northern California. The league’s first scheduled weekend March 18-19, 2006 was rained out. Rain is a possibility for this one as well, so be sure to check with your managers, and here for updates. We will post updates as they become available.

Click here for schedule for the Pacific Coast Tournament Series – April 1-2, 2006

Three of Sledgehammer’s California Top 10 teams will be in action at Stockton:

# 3 – A-1 Tank
# 4 – Taylor Farms
# 5 – River City Rockers

None of these three are slated to play each other in Saturday’s round robin games, so any possible match-ups would come on Sunday in the single elimination portion of the tournament.

With teams ranked # 6 through 10 playing down south in the SoCal ASA league weekend at Santa Fe Springs, CA, that leaves only the big boys, ISC World Tournament teams So Cal Bombers and Team Rainey idle this weekend.

(The # 1 ranked Bombers will be in Palm Springs for the ASA A/B league on Saturday, April 22, then head home to Yucaipa to play # 2 ranked Team Rainey in exhibition games on Sunday. The Bombers will have their full squad for the weekend of April 22 and 23.)
