The Ontario Amateur Softball Association Junior Eliminations
were held 
>in Mitchell Ontario on July 3, 4 and 5th.  What started out
as a cold 
>and rainy Friday turned into a sunny Saturday and Sunday.  Great

>weather for playing ball.  The 18 team field was narrowed down
to 6 
>teams on Sunday consisting of Linwood, Selkirk, Napanee, Fingal,
Owen 
>Sound and Waterloo.  In the first 2 games of the morning, Fingal
and 
>Napanee eliminated Linwood and Selkirk.  Fingal then went on
to 
>eliminate Napanee.  Chad Hargrove pitched a 5 inning no hitter
during 
>this game.  Owen Sound then went on to defeat Fingal.  Owen
Sound then 
>faced the undefeated Waterloo team.  Darrin Newson of Owen Sound
hit a 
>one-out bases loaded two-run single in the bottom of the 7th
to give 
>Owen Sound a come-from-behind 4-3 victory over Waterloo, forcing
the 
>'if necessary' sudden death final. In that game, Dylan Cunningham's

>three-run home run in the top of the 1st was all Andy Skelton
needed as 
>the Owen Sound Selects powered their way to an 8-1 win in 6-innings
to 
>win the elimination and the Junior A Provincial. 
> 
>The Bob Domik Most Valuable Pitcher Trophy was presented to
Andy 
>Skelton of the Owen Sound Selects.
>
>
>Owen Sound, Waterloo, Fingal and Napanee all advance to the
Canadian 
>junior men's championships in Owen Sound next month.
> 
>Many thanks go out to the blue crew led by Mitch Zuk, Greg Wise
and his 
>team from Mitchell, the OASA convenors, Mitchell Legion and
volunteers, 
>Mitchell Curling Club and volunteers and the teams and fans
for a well 
>played and well run tournament.
