Who are your picks for 12u ASA state

[ice_67]

The story was that teams that won state never won Nationals. Sometimes second, sometimes third, but never the big win. I think one of Cambell's teams broke the string.

There was another 12U team that won both, can't remember the name though, I think they did it last year.

Without a loss in either tournament, no less. Everyone hates them.

Wow, one of the bracketologists top 5 teams not getting a ticket to ASA Nationals.

I know Batbusters - Marquez got a tough draw, but not even a shot through the losers bracket.

I will follow hotwheels lead:

Winners Bracket Final 8:
OC Wildcats vs So Cal Jynx
Firecrackers vs SD Legacy (Great draw for Legacy)
Cal Thunder vs CA Rebels
Corona Angels vs Power Surge

Winners Bracket Final 4: Jynx vs Firecrackers and Thunder vs Power Surge

Winners Bracket Final: Jynx vs Power Surge (I give it to newly loaded PS team)

Losers Final 8:
Xpress vs Outlaws; OCBB-Marquez vs OCBB-Ray; Double Play vs No Fear; Bombsquad vs Sting
Next round of 8:
Outlaws vs OC Wildcats; OCBB-Marquez vs Legacy; No Fear vs Rebels; Bombsquad vs Angels

Losers Final 4:
Wildcats vs OCBB-Maquez (I don't think Marquez has the bodies to go any further); Rebels vs Angels
Next round of 4: Cal Thunder vs Wildcats; Firecrackers vs Angels

Losers Final 2: Cal Thunder vs Angels
Next round of 2: Jynx vs Angels

With the Angels playing Power Surge for the Championship.

Power Surge State Champs

I feel the team with the most talented depth will come out of the losers bracket and that is the Corona Angels

Winners bracket final 8

1. OC Wildcats 96/Corona Xpress (winner game 18)(loser does not qualify for Nationals)
2. Jynx
3. Firecrackers 96 (OC BB Marquez is a better team - lose to FC only b/c morning game)
4. OC Wildcats 97 (best pitcher in the their bracket)
5. Irving Sting/Thunder (winner game 26) (loser does not qualify for Nationals)
6. Cal Rebels
7. TNL/CA96-K (winner game 14)(loser does not qualify for Nationals)
8. PowerSurge 96

Winners Final 4

Jynx vs. Firecrackers96
Rebels vs. PS96
Firecrackers96 vs. PowerSurge 96 (Don't read too much into FC96 - Jynx just has harder road).
Note: I don't think Games 93 or 94 will be played.

ASA State Champs - PowerSurge 96

Teams that qualify for Nationals through Losers Bracket
1. Raiders 96
2. OC BB Marquez
3. Outlaws
4. BombSquad 96

So the most important games - do or die
1. TNL/CA96-K (Game 14)(loser does not qualify for Nationals)
2. OC Wildcats 96/Corona Xpress (Game 18)(loser does not qualify for Nationals)
3. Irving Sting/Thunder (winner game 26) (loser does not qualify for Nationals)

I take.

CA96
Xpress
Sting

So

TNL #20
OC Wildcats 96 #8
Cal Thunder #9
TeamSmith #10

do not qualify for ASA Nationals at State.
