ED KLECKER<\/strong> of California was an outstanding pitcher who led the Lakewood, CA. Jets to the World Tournament title in 1973. In that event, he was an All-World selection. He was also the tourney\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Outstanding Pitcher\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Most Valuable Player\u00e2\u20ac\u009d of the tournament held in Rock Island, Illinois.<\/p>\n Klecker was also an All-World Tournament pitcher in 1972 and again in 1974 with the Lakewood Jets. In both the 1972 and 1973 World Tournaments, he led all hurlers in strikeouts.<\/p>\n BRAD UNDERWOOD<\/strong> of Ontario was a dominant left-handed pitcher. He was four times an All-World Tournament choice while throwing for Canadian Tire of Owen Sound, Ontario, and All Car of Green Bay, Wisconsin. In the 1991 and 1994 World Tournaments he was selected as the event\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Outstanding Pitcher\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n In the 1991 World Tournament, Underwood turned in a performance for the ages when he beat defending champion Seattle 2-1; threw a perfect game against Aurora; tossed a 22-inning 1-0 shutout over Santa Rosa; and blanked Sioux City for nine innings in the championship contest – – – all in a span of 32 hours!

World Championship (in 1979) as sponsor of the Saginaw Michigan Bolters and also having served as the host and sponsor of an I.S.C. World Tournament. The latter event, played in 1981 in Saginaw, is believed by many to have been the greatest World Tournament in the proud history of the International Softball Congress. Gillis was the first ever Michigan ISC commissioner. He also served later as an ISC commissioner for the state of Florida.<\/p>\n These four ;men, heroes to followers of fastball, will be inducted into the ISC Hall of Fame in August, 2006, during the World Tournament in Kitchener, Ontario.<\/p>\n August 27, 2005<\/p>\n Gordon Wise A pair of left-handed pitchers, a super-nimble shortstop who could HIT, and a sponsor of an ISC World Championship team and host of an ISC World Tournament were elected to the International Softball Congress Hall of Fame during meetings of the ISC Board of Directors in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

\nGREG SEPULVEDA<\/strong> of California was a splendid shortstop. He starred with several teams but was at his best while earning All-World Tournament laurels in both 1984 and 1985 with the Lancaster, California, Chameleons. He was a big man who looked like he should have been playing either first or third base, but he was a blur covering ground at shortstop and could go get \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcem and run the bases with the very best!<\/p>\n
