Ontario Challenge Cup Schedule

Canada East ISC Commissioner Bob McGowan is pleased to announce the full schedule of games for the Ontario Challenge Cup. The winner of this tournament will receive a berth in the 2007 ISC II Tournament of Champions.

The OCC will be played in Hillsburgh, Ontario at Victoria Park and Barbour Field. Teams will be advised of the diamond assignments for their games by Bob McGowan this week.

Saturday August 26

Game 2 8:30 am Waterdown Hammer vs Hillsburgh Stallions (more…)

editor’s note: As we noted earlier, the OASA eliminations this year featured only a two-team senior division as St. Thomas & Jarvis were the only two teams prepared to go to Prince George, BC for the Senior Canadians, so the intermediate division was stacked with senior/ISC pitchers, including Don Scott, Todd Martin, Wayne Wells, Jason Smith and others. Congratulations to Port Elgin Blue Devils on their silver medal. Finishing fourth was the bulk of the Toronto Champion Indians (playing as East York) and fifth was the defending ISC II Champion Elmira Cubs.

editor’s note: Several teams that will be in the 2006 ISC II ToC are in action this weekend at the OASA “Intermediate” Eliminations. However, because only two Ontario teams are competing in the Senior eliminations, several senior/ISC pitchers are playing in the intermediate division this year, including 2/3 of the Kitchener Twins staff: Todd Martin & Don Scott. Should be an interesting weekend with $2000 going to the winner. No one is actually expected to bother with the Eastern Canadians should they win. The defending champions are Palermo Athletics. Teams from the ISC II ToC are in bold.

The Wyevale Tribe Fastball Club held it’s annual Canada Day Tournament this past weekend, and the Bucktown Bees came out on top nipping Napanee 6-5 in the final.

Minesing pull out a 7-6 win over the Toronto Bingos in the B Final. The scores and stats as best we could decipher were as follows. We would like to thank all who participated this year. We believe it was a undeniable success and we look forward to improving on it next year.

Editor’s Note: A number of players in this tournament will also be in action at the ToC, including Palermo’s Chris McColl, who was with Toronto Bingos, Wyevale’s Jason Giffen who is rumoured to be going with Toronto Indians, Milverton’s Nic Goetz, who pitches ISC II with Harriston and Jeff Detta who will be with Elora Brewers.
