Shepinto

One thought is the guys who have been getting the fields ready are exhausted and apparently there is no let up in the rain. Three of the guys, who have been there every day, coach a pinto team and they need to get them ready to play in Sour Lake on Sat. However, those guys did not make this decision, it was the Pony guy who made the decision to wait until Monday. I don;t like it, b/c now I will have two playing in games- Orange and Sour Lake. You still didn;t answer me though- if Orange wins and they again play Vidor onMonday at 7:45, do they have to beat them twice or b/c it is the finals, is it only once?

Apparently it is all off until Monday--however, if Orange beats TC--and they will(smile)--then, they play Vidor after that----if they win, when do they play Vidor again, or do they? It is double elimination, right? When will the rain let up???????? We begin a tournament in Sour Lake Sat.

yeah- disappointing show by Orange, truly not the usual ball playing for them. I do hope they come out tomorrow and play like they know how and hope they win. I have heard several scenarios--if Orange beats TC, do they play Vidor tomorrow night after that game?

Orange Shetland went to State 2 yrs ago via Conroe and last year Orange Shetland went to Huntsville, but,unfortunately, didn't win there. I think Vidor Pinto at least went to Conroe/Huntsville- not sure of how they did there. There is a lot of talent in this area and it is great to get to State. Sometimes it is hard to believe these kids are so young.

Great job to both Orange teams last night! It IS a shame that only one team moves forward! I don't know how it is all decided, but for us (this area) to be taken out of the Houston/Conroe tournament was not a good decision! I guess they didn't like Golden Triangle teams taking spots at State--but if we happen to be better teams that year than Houston area teams, then???????? ARe there any other routes that this area could go through to State? Rather than only one team advancing, that is! Oh well, for this year, it is only one team and may the best team win! Wednesday night will be a great game b/ween Orange and Vidor! Hope the rain holds. I am looking at rain with a hint of blue skies right now! Go field maintenance crew!!!!!!!!!!!

After last night's win over Twin County (16-0), I would love to think Orange will win it all. I never would have thought it would have been that score, however! Twin County looked good on Saturday, however, PA didn't, so it was really hard to tell how good TC really was. My bet is on Orange, though!! All the way Orange Stars!

Fortunately, I have no idea who you are talking about--won't even try to guess! That's what keeps it challenging though! How about another scrimmage with TGreen? IS that on for this week? Shetland tourney begins Saturday, June 30th. Y'all gave the outfield good work. The nice thing for y'all is that at least we hit off the tee, so usually there is a play to make. We scrimmaged Mustangs and they pitch to their own--sometimes they didn't hit, so it made for a long scrimmage. But, their pitcher needed the practice as well and it was better than regular practice.

Gasilla, there is always an "almost", huh?

Boy have you got that right-hahahaha Hey- Good game last night! Great hitting! It's nice to sit on the sides and watch for fun sometimes! Isn't it amazing how these kids progress even more so in the few short weeks after league?

You won't see him lose his calm that often, but am sure he can! He has been a coach for quite a while now, both softball and baseball, and has won several championships. Notice the pic at the beginning of this thread!

No pressure on you LLDad--keep it neat and orderly--ALL THE WAY TO STATE! HAHAHAHAHA

Piratefan probably didn't mean anything derogatory! They were beaten by a few teams this week-end and simply meant they needed to get a few wins to get going again! That was an enjoyable tournament--especially to play some select teams that both Vidor and Orange played. Good job to both!
