Cinco De Mayo, Alb NM<\/p>\n
Maybe this year it should have been the “Chilly de Mayo”. Cold weather was the name of the weekend.
\nWith temperatures in the 40’s the 11 team field opened up the Summer season in the Southwest.
\nThe Third annual Cinco de Mayo was different because of the weather but the results were the same.<\/p>\n
This years Champion was 3 time champion “the Wolfpack” from Las Cruces NM. The Tourney was
\ncalled on Sunday afternoon With only the Championship game Left to play. With the weather in the low 40’s
\nand a wind chill in the 30’s the Tournamet was stopped after discussions with the last two teams involved.
\nThe weather was 40 degrees below the average and injuries were mounting. Both Teams agreed that stopping
\nplay was the best thing to do.<\/p>\n
Tourney MVP, Tony Mancha Pitched and Hit the Wolfpack to the undefeated position of the tournament. The
\nWolfpack had Tournament victories over the Ray’s Auto Bulls and to Albuquerques 2nd to None, Waiting for
\nthe Championship game the Wolfpack watched. 2nd to None defeat the Ray’s Auto Bulls in the third place
\ngame 9-1..All Tournament Pticher Harold Redhouse had ptiched the 2nd to None to three tournament victories.
\nThe Ray’s Auto Bulls had a very nice Tournament losing their frst game and working through 5 loser bracket
\ngames to finish 3rd. The Tournament Directors (Joe Baca) Alb. Risers had their Highest Finish ever at 4th Place.
\nWIth the Wolfpack undefeated and 2nd to None with one lose it was a team and tournament decision to stop
\nplay and rain, sleet and cold weather prevailed.<\/p>\n
