Subject: Results of Pete Schwab Memorial Tournament - Frankenmuth, MI -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Results of the 6th Annual Pete Schwab Memorial Men's Fastpitch Softball Tournament (ISC II level) Frankenmuth, MI July 13-15th, 2007 18 teams fastpitch teams from Michigan, Ontario, Indiana, and Ohio competed in this years Pete Schwab Memorial Tournament held in Frankenmuth, Michigan with Priority Mortgage (Grand Rapids, MI) beating Blenheim Home Run Restaurant (Blenheim, ON) in the finals by the score of 4-0. Priority Mortgage earned a berth in the finals by beating the Michigan Twisters (Midland, MI) 5-2 in the semi-finals, while Blenheim "fought" the Alvinston Indians (Alvinston, ON) to an emotional 8-4 victory in the other semi-final. Other playoff teams included Kelder's Poured Walls (Ludington, MI) who lost 5-2 to the Twisters in a first round playoff game and the host team, Up-to-Date Painting (Millington, MI) who were out-hit by Alvinston 10-8. Up-to-Date won a 1-0 sudden-death playoff against the Blues (Hastings, MI) to advance into the playoffs. MVP pitchers were Duke Vanderark & Tracy Boetsma from Priority Mortgage, each pitcher having 3-0 records. MVP hitter was Rick Rutledge from the Twisters who batted 9 for 12 with 4 walks. The four-game round robin format draw was made to force match-ups among teams not in the same league and not typically facing each other. A four hour rain delay on Saturday morning forced most of the pool play games to be started in the 3rd inning. I would to extend a sincere thank you to all the teams, fans, players, and umpires (led by UIC Dave Selden) for their patience and good spirit throughout the weekend. The results after round robin play were as follows: Bracket A Priority Mortgage (Grand Rapids, MI) 4-0 Alvinston Indians (Alvinston, ON) 3-1 Michigan Twisters (Roscommon, MI) 2-2 Tiffanys (Frankenmuth, MI) 2-2 Duncan Outlaws (Elkhart, IN) 2-2 HBC Rice Creek Lightning (Battle Creek, MI) 2-2 BCCI (St. Helen, MI) 2-2 Clark Construction (Elkhart, IN) 1-3 Abie's Bar (Eaton Rapids, MI) 0-4 Bracket B Blenheim Home Run Restaurant (Blenheim, ON) 3-1 Kelder's Poured Walls (Ludington, MI) 3-1 Up-to-Date Painting (Millington, MI) 3-1 The Blues (Hastings, MI) 3-1 Bernie's Tavern (Homer, MI) 2-2 Ashland Merchants (Ashland, ON) 2-2 Windsor Reds (Windsor, ON) 2-2 Communiquest (Midland, MI) 0-4 Prestige Panthers (Elliot Lake, ON) 0-4 POOL PLAY RESULTS Friday, July 13th Game 1: Tiffany's 2 Abies Bar 1 WP: J.
