All-Star Game recap
First off congrats to the parents who were the winners of the kid/parents softball game 11-10 in 9 innings. The winning team was made up of Mr. Megaro, Mr. Canova, Mr. Duve, Mr. Storz, Mr. Kelley, Mr. Horan, Jack Horan, Jim Boyle and the player with the game winning hit Mr. Pappa.
At the league all-star game all of our players played very well with Bob Boyle winning the MVP of the game. Tom Mcfeeley also made the play of the game with his diving head first catch that not only wowed the crowd but also almost gave his mother a heart attack.
To see pictures of the game you can go to BQpictures.com. These photos are shot really well and our team is represented well in them.
Uniform Return
Please return Uniform, pants, and belts to my house 114 Harned Drive as soon as possible. If I am not home and you dont give the uniform to someone in my house directly after you drop it off just call my cell or e-mail me so I know to look for it.
Thanks
Joe

Wednesday's Playoff Game
Our game Wednesday will be at Roxborough. We will meet at 5pm. Roxborough is working on getting a field so the field will be TBA.
Hats
Some parents were asking about getting the team hats. I have talked to the head off the baseball part of the SAA and he said that he has bigger sizes of the hats and can be gotten right away but the smaller sizes he would need to order and they would take a couple weeks to get in. If you would like a hat let me know your hat size, the hats are fitted. The cost of the hats are $11 and this is just out there again because some parents asked who were interested.
Tournament Review
May 25, 2008
We had a beautiful weekend for some baseball. Everyone contributed and I think we all had some fun. Players remember what we talked about as coaches this weekend and be ready to apply these things in games.
A BIG THANKS to all the parents who drove, watched and supported not only their own children but the team. We have a great group of kids and that is thanks in big part to the parents.
For Tuesday we are meeting at North Ave for 4:15PM to get a little BP in please check the website throughout the day if it does start to rain throughout the day.
