Tuesday, April 21 TNLer Cassidy Coleman named CalHiSports State Girls Athlete of the Week TNL's Cassidy Coleman has been blasting through her high-school competition like Sherman's march through the South. And, by her efforts, somebody noticed that we actually play softball in San Diego. Read all about it here. I'm sure it ranks right up there with the numerous WOZ awards she's received at TNL! Oh, and if that wasn't enough, Cassidy also just broke the single season San Diego CIF record for strikeouts, breaking the old record of 400, and playoffs are still pending! Friday, May 22 TNL 14U wins Triple Crown Mother's Day Tournament
Sunday, January 18 TNL 18 Gold "Classified" No, you're not reading something top secret. In Southern California ASA, becoming an 18 Gold team got a little more complicated this year, with the total teams being limited to 54. in order to enforce this limit, two qualification tournaments are to be held, the first of which took place this weekend (1/17-1/18) in Fontana. After a slow, rusty start in a 7-1 loss to Firecrackers (Ristow), TNL reeled off three wins over So Cal Primetime, Minors Gold, and Fillys Gold to nab one of the 24 "classification" spots up for grabs. Tuesday, November 11 TNL Class of 2010

Tuesday, April 28 TNL 14U Wins Fresno Force Classic!
TNL's 14U squad brought home the hardware at the Fresno Force Classic, held annually in beautiful Fresno, California. Billed as a meeting between Northern and Southern California, as is often the case, it was a lot of traveling to play a lot of So Cal teams, including downing the Firecrackers 2-1 in the bottom of the 8th in the championship game. We are... TNL!!! Wednesday, October 3 TNL 12U, 14U Take Barstow AFA Qualifier TNL's younger teams shine again as they take first place in the 12U and 14U divisions of the AFA Qualifier in Barstow. Great job ladies!
ST PATTY'S DAY SUCCESS IN THE DESERT
Playing in their first tournament as a team, The Next Level 12's continued to grow as a group, taking third place in the Las Vegas - St Patrick's Day tournament. Going 3-0 in pool play with solid pitching, the 12's made it a lot more interesting come Sunday in bracket play, winning their first three games, all in "walk-off" fashion in the bottom of the last inning. In the semifinals, they rallied yet again in the final inning only to fall short to the eventual tournament winners, the Las Vegas Rebels. A solid showing by every member of the team.
The 14u team continued their dominance this spring season going 8-0 in Las Vegas, outscoring their eight opponents by a combined score of 74-12. In the Championship game, TNL outlasted a very strong Team Smith team winning 5-2 before heading home in the wee hours of the night. In a total team effort, the girls were impressive both offensively, and in the circle Their next tournament will be The Surf City classic in two weeks at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex.
Thursday, April 2 TNL 14's CO-CHAMPIONS- Surf City Classic
The TNL 14's found themselves winners of their 3rd straight tournament, this time sharing the title with and outstanding Firecracker team. After advancing through the quarter finals and semi-finals against two quality opponents, TNL matched up against the Firecrackers in the Championship game late Sunday night. This was an old fashion pitchers duel, as both hurlers were outstanding, throwing 7 complete shutout innings each, sending it into an international tie breaking scenario. Up against the clock, TNL scored 1 run in the top of the 8th, and the Firecrackers answered with one of their own in the bottom half before the city turned off the lights and the game ended in a tie. Probably a fitting ending as both teams played fantastic softball, with all the intensity and excitement of a college world series game. The next tournament stop for the 14u team will be in lovely Fresno, California at the end of April.
Monday, November 19 TNL Takes Breakers 16U Tournament
The Next Level took home the prize in last weekend's Breakers 16U tournament held at Rancho Bernardo High School with a 5-0-1 overall record. In pool play, TNL defeated Legacy and Ozone, but tied the San Diego Breakers. In bracket play, TNL downed Chaos and the So Cal Breakers to set up the championship game against North County Extreme, which TNL won 3-0. Monday, July 30 TNL 12U 5th, 14U Gold 7th at ASA Nationals

TNL 14U Gold Wins Florida Qualfier TNL's 14U Gold squad took 1st place and secured their berth to the ASA National Championships in Normal Illinois in Lakeland, Florida. The weekend began with rain. Much needed rain for the area, but it forced a change in the format of the tournament. The three-game guarantee was dropped in favor of a straight double-elimination bracket. However, the decision was also made to complete the winner's side of the bracket as soon as possible, as insurance against more rain. The 9am games actually got underway around 12:30pm. TNL's opening game Saturday was an 9-0 run-rule decision against Team Florida. This set up a matchup against the South Florida Mini-Bulls. TNL took an early 2-0 lead, but the Mini-Bulls used a TNL miscue and a sacrifice fly to cut the lead to 2-1. TNL then came on strong, with the full seven-inning game ending in a 10-2 TNL victory. That set up the finals of the winner's bracket against Tampa Mustangs (Frank). TNL pushed a pair of runs across early and held on for a 2-0 win. Both teams threatened numerous times but both sides used excellent defense and pitching to escape. In the finals of the loser's bracket, Tampa Mustangs met the Mini-Bulls and after much of the game being tied at 0-0 the Mustangs struck first with a run, but later the Mini-Bulls tied it again at 1-1. The Mustangs put three across late to win 4-1. That set up the rematch for the championship. The Mustangs struck first, putting up three runs in the top of the 2nd to put TNL in an early hole. TNL battled back to tie the game at 3, but the Mustangs weren't finished yet, as they would take a 4-3 lead. With two outs, TNL started the winning rally, scoring four on a 2-RBI double to left by Laura Winter and a 250' BOMB by starting pitcher Cassidy Coleman. TNL would stretch its lead to 12-4 to win the championship by run rule after six innings. TNL would like to thank all the friendly folks in Central Florida who made our trip special, and add a special shout-out to the Tampa Mustangs, a talented, classy team who will no doubt join us in Normal, Illinois. TNL has now qualified teams at 12U, 14U, 16U, and 18A for the ASA National Championsips this year! Tuesday, May 29 TNL 12U Leads Banner Weekend!
In the Triple Crown Quicksilver Classic, TNL had the 14 Gold team competing in the 16U division, and the 16U team competing in the 18U division. Both teams brought home the hardware by going undefeated. 16U had a memorable championship game rally, having fallen into a 9-1 defecit, which left most observers planning for the "IF" championship game. However, TNL's hitters had other ideas, and completed an impressive rally to win 10-9 on a walk-off, bases-loaded infield single by long-time TNLer Jordan Parsons. In the 16U division, TNL's 14U squad was a single, shaky inning away from shutting out the tournament, giving up only two runs in the winner's bracket final game against San Diego Thunder, having shut out every other team they faced in pool and bracket play. TNL then waited for the completion of the double-elimination loser's bracket to see Thunder again and finished the tournament on a no-hitter by Cassidy Coleman and an 8-0 run-rule victory. TNL now has three squads (12U, 16U, and 18U) qualified for their respective ASA National Championships. TNL's 14U Gold squad takes to the air on Thursday (5/31) to attend an ASA open qualifier in Lakeland, Florida in hopes of punching their ticket to the big dance.
TNL 14U Wins Las Vegas Pair-A-Dice Tournament! Friday, August 8 TNL 12U 4th at ASA Nationals!
TNL's 12U squad battled its way through the heat and humidity of Montgomery Alabama to take 4th place out of 70 teams in the USA/ASA 12U "A" National Championship! BRAVO TNL 12U! TNL's young 14U Blue squad finished 33rd out of 81 teams at the 14U "A" National Championship in Midland, Texas, while the 14 Gold squad finished 17th at Western "A" Nationals in Clovis, California. TNL's 16U team finished at the bottom of the heap at the 16U "A" National Championship, with a stunning 2-BBQ finish after capturing 2nd place at the So Cal State Championships. Tuesday, February 6 TNL turns out for Taylor Kelly at SDSU!
Cal did their job on the field as well, beating their SDSU hosts 6-1. Observers noted that TNL's colors matched those of Cal and wondered if it was a coincidence. Taylor was also supported by a sizable contingent wearing purple, which may have something to do with Taylor's high school, Santana. Best wishes to Cal in the upcoming season, and Taylor, thanks for being a great example of what The Next Level is all about. Friday, February 2 TNL Superbowl Pools Ready for the big day?

Anyway, good luck to everyone, and thanks for participating! Tuesday, August 8 TNL 18 Gold 13th at Gold Nationals! After warming up with a 1-1 finish in pool play, The Next Level 18 Gold kicked off bracket play with a 1-0 win ...

To open bracket play, TNL defeated Colorado Commotion 1-0, and awaits the winner of New Mexico Nemesis and Victor Valley Magic. The 16U Western Nationals was cut short due to weather, but as one of two undefeated teams left in the tournament, TNL was awarded the championship and an '07 berth to ASA Nationals!

The coaches and board of directors of The Next Level Softball continue to refine the organization's plans for the summer when our high-school players return, as the younger teams continue to practice and play. As before, the board would like to assure everyone that TNL is not going anywhere. As one of the premiere travel softball organizations in the nation, having produced many talented athletes that play at the collegiate level, the board and our members have pulled together to continue this great tradition. For the 2008 season, all age groups are committed to participate in many tournaments and arrangements for these have already been made. This summer is packed, just as it always is, and TNL will continue it's quest for the 12U thru 18 Gold ASA championships. Mike Myer & Jerry Delamater have assumed the practice and leadership duties of the club. We also have coaches in place for each of the age groups: Doug, Leslie, Jamie and the return of a former member of our coaching staff (and ever a part of the extended TNL family), Cathy. These coaches will all be there to help Mike and Jerry, and we will continue the tradition that makes TNL a true organization, not just a collection of teams that share a name. If you have any questions about TNL, its mission, or have information relevant to the organization or its players, please contact us. In closing, as always, we are... TNL! |
