Dear Players & Parents,
I received the schedule and tournament format for the WA state tournament. We play at noon July 20, at Tumwater High School in Tumwater, WA. Our second game is on Thursday July 21 at 6:00pm. Tumwater is near Olympia. And on Friday July 22, we play at noon again.
The summary of the tourney bracket is this...there are 8 teams in the tournament and the first three days of play (Wed thru Friday) determines the pairings or seedings.
On Saturday, the top 6 teams from the preliminary play will move forward and compete for the state championship. Two of the top 6 team get a bye on Saturday morning/noon and do not play until late Saturday afternoon and evening.
So if we play well on pool play Wed thru Sat, we are in a position to earn a BYE in the semifinal round. And only need to win a Saturday nite matchup to be in the state championship on Sunday July 24th.
I have attached the state tourney bracket. And will put out a practice schedule Tuesday evening after work. Our team's strength is that we are very balanced on offense, with pitching depth, team speed, defense & great versatility on our roster.
But we are one of eight teams in Tumwater WA vying for a berth in the regional tournament in Salem, Oregon Aug 1-6.
Thanks!
Coach Patrick
