[Ring'Em Up]

Just to let you all know. Bowling Green East won the 11 and 12 year old State Championship and will play in Indianapolis on August 1st in the Great Lakes Region. They have a very good team and have a shot at making the World Series as well. I may have to mortgage my house just to watch our teams play baseball next month. You only live once.

Congratulations, Purple. Sounds like you guys got it going down that way. Best of luck the rest of the way. We'll be watching and rooting for you guys.
For the Belfry sham, sounds extremely dissapointing, if it all went down the way it sounds like it did. Ive watched that group of boys for a few years now and they really impressed me each year. I'm sure they will make some noise in school ball the next few years.
I'm with P Thunder on the "finish with 8" rule. Was it addressed to the umpire-in-chief or the tourney director? That seems to be your major issue that could really cause for some problems for the DA and whoever else proclaimed authority over, what seems to be, a gomm of a tourney.
P.S.... there will be a couple of Babe Ruth Tournament teams next year (14u and 16u) in Johnson Co. With no Babe Ruth offered in Belfry, come see us.
Good job guys.
