JARVIS — It wasn’t exactly a banner weekend for the Owen Sound Selects organization as its senior and Volkswagen junior squad went a combined 1-7 in International Softball Congress Travel League play.<\/p>\n

“We’re not very happy with our weekend overall,” coach Lee Jacques said on Sunday.<\/p>\n

“Our senior team was a little shorthanded and we really didn’t hit. We brought up a couple of midgets and some juniors from our other team and they performed quite well. It was the guys we count on who didn’t play very well this weekend.”<\/p>\n

The Owen Sound Verge Selects seniors were 1-3 including a 3-2 eight-inning win over the Port Elgin BlueDevils on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The juniors are off until July 24 when both of these Owen Sound teams will be in action at the travel league championship tournament which they’re hosting. The final will go on July 25.<\/p>\n

OUR SELECTIONS: The Volkswagen juniors have added two players to the roster for next month’s Canadian Junior Men’s Championships in Napanee. Owen Sound added Keeshig, who plays on the Selects #2 junior team, and Walkerton Jays outfielder Steven Ashbridge. The Volkswagen Selects will make their final selection today. Host Napanee added Walkerton’s Adam Alexander and Selects #2 pitcher Kyle Crawford. Click here for the complete story.<\/a> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
