ARKANSAS' HOME FOR 8U MACHINE PITCH INFORMATION

8U MACHINE PITCH RANKINGS FOR WEEK OF JUNE 1, 2009

Here we are leading into the first round of ASA District tournaments around the state of Arkansas and some things are more cloudy than they ever have been. There is little argument that 1 and 2 in the state are Magic Softball and Thunder Black. Thunder Blue is essentially an undisputable number 3, having lost only to Thunder Black and Magic all season. Rounding out the elite of 8u A Class teams leaves Petit Jean and Lil Attitudes.

The next tier is where the waters get cloudy. The Wildkatz of Stuttgart, with an impressive tournament win in Cabot this weekend, placed themselves in the B grouping. Joining with them are the 2nd year Benton Wildcats, Salem Overdrive and Cabot Aftershock. Then you have your "bubble" B/C teams of Bald Knob Diamond Dawgs, Vilonia Hot Shots and Y2K Extreme.

For information on tournaments, don't hesitate to write me at ecciLR@aol.com or you can check at www.arasa.org, www.registerasa.com and www.usssa.com. Lastly, if you want on the weekly email list, email me at the same address above.
