Vancouver’s Mike Piechnik Notches Two Wins Over Pueblo<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

[Pueblo, CO] – The Vancouver Grey Sox made their first trip into the state of Colorado a successful one, capturing the Joe Santos Memorial Tournament. The Grey Sox went undefeated in the 8 team event – defeating the hometown Pueblo Bandits 8 – 4 in the final game. The tournament was played under sunny skies and hot weather, and was attended by good sized and knowledgeable crowds. Thanks to our host the Pubelo Bandits and in particular Chris Santos for all his assistance. We look forward to seeing the Bandits again when they return to Vancouver in late July for the 7th Annual Vancouver Challenge scheduled for July 25 – 27 at South Memorial Park in Vancouver. The results of our 5 Grey Sox games played on the weekend are enclosed. Next action for the team is May 31 \/ June 1 when we travel to Grande Prairie, Alberta for the Horse Lake Thunder tournament, which is providing a $10,000 prize for the event champions.<\/p>\n
