I do think the former way was a great experience for the kids. They got a couple cracks at trying to win a game at state. However, i do hate driving all that way to Owensboro in order to play on deep infields that seem hard to judge as well as the deal with the removable fences. I have always thought that it should be played at one of the major universities here in our state. When you’re the best in your region, you should play where the elite athletes get to. No different than basketball being played at Rupp. I just think if it’s single elimination, all 16 teams should get that chance to play on John Cropp if that’s where it’s held. Always felt like the girls got a raw deal with this thing while playing in Owensboro when the boys are at the Legens ballpark. Owensboro is great, the fields are not. Gonna miss The BBQ.
