Editor’s notes:
Kudos to Tournament Director Ken Hackmeister, the AAU’s Debra Horn and all of the supporting cast for putting together a great event.
Ballpark Radio was in Orlando for its ninth year, broadcasting live. The archives are posted here for anyone that missed them, including players involved in the games that want to hear the call of the game.
ESPN had a film crew on hand, taking video for highlight clips that they’ll post on YouTube, so watch for more info.
Hill United’s Ustream videos here. Their video is done on an iPad, and is a great service to the game and fastball fans. They video stream each and every game they play.
Maddy is prepping the photos that she took over the four day tournament, and will be posting those at Maddy’s Photos shortly. Watch here at Fastpitchwest and/or on our Facebook and Twitter pages for a link to the photos when they are up.
If you spot any games/scores missing or incorrect, please let us know. We have the original scoresheets from the tournament and plan to scan and post them, so keep an eye out.
