2007 Rich Rice Memorial Tournament

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

Interbay Winner at Wenatchee, WA

Some results from the long line of tournaments held last weekend, from Wenatchee, Washington, courtesy of Al’s Fastball:

The 2007 Rich Rice Memorial Tournament was won this past weekend by Interbay Door of Seattle,WA. This early season tourney is a favorite for teams because they get a full 5 games guaranteed in the warm sun of beautiful Wenatchee,WA. The top two finishers in each pool face off in the championship game. This year it was Interbay Door and the host team, Triple C Healthcare from Wenatchee.

Led by the pitching of Kevin Rasmussen who was MVpitcher for the tournament with some help from father Craig on the weekend Interbay managed to fashion a 5-1 record en route to another
Rich Rice title in the teams history .

The Triple C team led by the hitting of the Lewallen brothers managed to win 4 games in a row after a 1st game loss to Old Growth 6-4. On Sunday Terry Mace tossed a shutout vs Max’s followed by a hard fought win by Wade Liberty in game five of the weekend vs Mission to secure the berth in the title game. As always a great tournament and this year the rain held off with 95 degree or more temperatures all weekend. A great tournament for all that attend. Hopefully 2008 can attract a few more teams to the tourney.

A big thanks to Uncle Vern, John Kallahar, Randy Cooper and all involved in the community of Wenatchee for what is a classy, well run, and enjoyable tournament on the banks of the Columbia
River!!!

Pool A

Innovative Communications of Utah is Best of the West

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

Top seeded Innovative Communications team from Utah capped a perfect weekend with a 13-5 win over second seed Panteras of Southern California, running their record to 5-0 on the weekend, and claiming the 2007 Best of the West title in Santa Barbara, CA. The win by Innovative Communications marked the second year in a row the champion has come from Utah, with last year’s title being captured by the High Desert Dawgs.

Steve Black was the winning pitcher in the title game, with the Panteras Ron Rupp suffering the loss. The Utah squad mounted a well balanced offensive attack to score 13 runs, aided by a number of defensive miscues by the Panteras.

Innovative’s Jason Littledike was 3-5 in the championship game, while teammate Ryan Briggs was 3-3. Jason Littledyke of Innovative Communications, was named the tournament’s Most Valuable Player, winning an Easton CNT Stealth bat, while the championship game starter Steve Black won Outstanding Pitcher honors. Each member of the championship team won a Locker bag embroidered with “2007 Best of the West Champions”, gear generously donated by AIS/ Sportsrobe.

The Best of the West is the longest running open tournament in California, 17 years and counting. It has been headed up for most of them by the ISC’s streaming media maven, David Blackburn. Blackburn will be in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, in that role for the 7th consecutive year. After five years of extensive live audio broadcasts, the 2006 ISC World Tournament marked the first year of extensive video broadcasts, on “ISC-TV”. More information for this year’s broadcasts will be posted in August at the official ISC website, http://www.iscfastpitch.com.

Watch for Maddy’s Monday Night Photos from the tournament !

Snapper Shootout Final – Rained Out in 5th inning

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

Courtesy of Dan Bernard, Niagara Snappers via Blair Setford

ISC II #1 Niagara Snappers were leading ISC II#10 Elora Brewers 3-2 in the top of the 5th inning when the rains arrived in Virgil, Ontario.

With little hope of the fields being playable within a reasonable time, the teams agreed to split the $2,800 in prize money.

Pitching for the Niagara Snappers was Dan Duemo with Todd Uhrig on the mound for the Brewers. Uhrig had homered in the bottom of the 4th to draw Elora to within one.

Congratulations to both teams on making it to the final and to the Snappers for putting on another first-class tournament.
