Results of the 6th Annual Pete Schwab Memorial Men’s Fastpitch Softball Tournament (ISC II level)
\nFrankenmuth, MI
\nJuly 13-15th, 2007<\/p>\n
18 teams fastpitch teams from Michigan, Ontario, Indiana, and Ohio competed in this years Pete Schwab Memorial Tournament held in Frankenmuth, Michigan with Priority Mortgage (Grand Rapids, MI) beating Blenheim Home Run Restaurant (Blenheim, ON) in the finals by the score of 4-0. <\/p>\n
Priority Mortgage earned a berth in the finals by beating the Michigan Twisters (Midland, MI) 5-2 in the semi-finals, while
\nBlenheim “fought” the #18 Alvinston Indians (Alvinston, ON) to an emotional 8-4 victory in the other semi-final.<\/p>\n
Other playoff teams included Kelder’s Poured Walls (Ludington, MI) who lost 5-2 to the Twisters in a first round playoff game
\nand the host team, Up-to-Date Painting (Millington, MI) who were out-hit by Alvinston 10-8. Up-to-Date won a 1-0 sudden-death playoff against the Blues (Hastings, MI) to advance into the playoffs. <\/p>\n
MVP pitchers were Duke Vanderark & Tracy Boetsma from Priority Mortgage, each pitcher having 3-0 records. MVP hitter was Rick Rutledge from the Twisters who batted 9 for 12 with 4 walks.<\/p>\n
The four-game round robin format draw was made to force match-ups among teams not in the same league and not typically facing each other. A four hour rain delay on Saturday morning forced most of the pool play games to be started in the 3rd inning. I would to extend a sincere thank you to all the teams, fans, players, and umpires (led by UIC Dave Selden) for their patience and good spirit throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n
We are already looking forward to next year’s event as rooms to the 3rd floor of the Bavarian Inn Lodge (over-looking the
\nfields) are already being reserved.<\/p>\n
