A new champion is crowned
October 23, 2011
The 2011 Brooklin/Whitby Fall Classic has come to and end and a new Champion has been crowned, marking this the 5th consecutive year that a differnet team has won the Fall Classic.
Tournament organizers would like to congratulate the Vaughan Vikings on a very hard fought and much deserved win. The team had an excellent run, losing only one game on their way to becoming the 2011 Brooklin/Whitby Fall Classic CHAMPIONS
After going 2-1 in the Round Robin, the Vikings would then take on and defeat league rival Newmarket Express, last years champion, in Semi-Final #2. They would dispose of the Express with an 6-4 win. They were off to the final and a meeting with the Peterborough Riley's who had hammered the Oshawa Banana Slugs, early tournament favorites, with a 12-0 mercy win in 5 innings.
In one of the quickest games on record at the Fall Classic in the five years of operation, the Vikings came out on top of a very good defensive and well pitched game against the Riley's, winning 3-1, in the quick time of 1 hour and 15 minutes.
So a great job by Morty Fergenbaum, his coaching staff and all the Vikings players on a fantastic tournament and tournament win! Congratulations and we hope you are back in 2012!
