12u Surf City Predictions

by bracketologist » Fri Mar 27, 2009 10:12 am

Nice tournament set up, if no upsets and everything goes according to the tournament seeding:

Pool A = Cal Rebels
Pool B = OC Wildcats (I have Revenge winning this pool)
Pool C = Bomb Squad
Pool D = PowerSurge
Pool E = Cal Thunder
Pool F = Corona Angels Knighten

Leading to great quarterfinals

OC BB Snow vs. CA – Knighten
Rebels vs. OC Wildcats
Bomb Squad 96 vs. PowerSurge 96
Cal Thunder vs. American Athletics

Semi Finals

Rebels vs. CA Knighten
PowerSurge vs. Cal Thunder

Finals

Cal Rebels vs PowerSurge

Now if you look at the brackets there is little reason for any top team to throw their pool to get a better path in the bracket. Second all of the top teams will likely have to throw their #1 pitcher in their first round game or they will be going home.

My Predictions

On the bottom bracket:

Pool E – 1st place team (I’ll take Cal Thunder) has the easiest path to the Finals. As BombSquad (1st pool C) most likely will have to throw the ace in both round 1 (I believe vs. OC Wildcats 2nd in pool B) and 2 (vs. PowerSurge 1st Pool D).

Pool F – 1st place team (I’ll take CA Knighten) has the easiest path to the Finals. I believe the Rebels will face Raiders (#2 pool D) and Revenge (my #1 pool B), before facing the Angels.

My take – CA-K over BombSquad in finals.


Pool A - Murdy Park F1
1. Irvine Sting
2. Cal Rebels
3. Desert Blaze
4. Cal Stars Coast

Pool B - Murdy Park F2
1. OC Wildcats
2. Revenge
3. So Cal Diamonds
4. USA Athletics

Pool C - Canyon HS
1. Bomb Squad
2. OC Batbusters Ray
3. Valley Breeze
4. Corona Angels Lockman

Pool D - Greer Park
1. Grapettes
2. Nemesis
3. OC Batbusters Snow
4. San Diego Power Surge
5. Raiders 96

Pool E - Fountain Valley High School F1
1. OC Crush
2. Cal Thunder
3. Cal Breeze
4. Corona Xpress


Pool F - Fountain Valley High School F2
1. American Athletics
2. Corona Angels Knighten
3. Fresno Force
4. Sacramento Fire and Ice

I think this is going to be a great tournament this weekend! Granted, I haven't seen every team on this list play so if I'm leaving anyone out don't go gettin all butt hurt about it......I would say you can make an argument that any one of almost 10 teams has a shot at doing it.....

Rebels
Wildcats
Bomb Squad
Grapettes
Power Surge
Angels Knighten
Thunder
Xpress
Raiders

I can't argue with your final 4 though, looks about right based on recent history........Don't count out the Grapettes......

Which is it Rebels and PS or CA and BS in the final????


I say -

CA-K over BombSquad in finals.


If we go by the poll rankings - it should be

Cal Rebels over PowerSurge in finals

Please do not confuse coaches who broke up the fight with coaches who actively participated in a fight. Corona Angels COACHES did nothing more than break it up and extract the parent who was involved and made him leave.
