The 8th annual Special Olympics\/ISC game was held last Wednesday in South Bend, and surprising to no one, the ISC All Stars were shut out 33-0!!<\/p>\n

We had one of our best turnouts ever, with over 30 ISC players and coaches. 14 of the ISC umpires helped guide the game along.<\/p>\n

But the real stars were the players from the Special Olympics team who gave 100% on every play and reminded us all that is still just a game.<\/p>\n

If anyone has a group pic they’d like to share, please post it.<\/p>\n

Each Special Olympics player was given 3 souvenirs from the teams and tournament – new hats and t-shirts. I may miss someone but the following provided the souvenirs:<\/p>\n

New York Gremlins
\nHill United
\nCalifornia A’s
\nToronto Batmen
\nSandlot Sports
\nGreat Lakes Mariners
\nPueblo Bandits<\/p>\n

(My apologies for the ones I missed, we had gear coming in right til the last minute from a lot of different people.<\/p>\n

And to the players and umpires who came out, you put a lot of smiles on faces that day – great job.<\/p>\n

Craig Crawford Jennifer Johnson Patterson Juan Potolicchio Bruno Motroni Cody Skelton Todd Hamblin Jason Shea Shea Bryant Nathan Devine Ed Otterman Gregg Leather Ty McKinney<\/p>\n

These guys were only a few of the ISC players, coaches and umpires. The entire field was full and created a great atmosphere for the game.<\/p>\n

This game will be back next year in Quad Cities!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
