As for the Texas Teams, it is my opinion that only a couple teams stand a chance to play for any kind of hardware.
You have to be on your "A" game in this tournament. You must be hitting on all cylinders to get that deep in the bracket.
This is not the little ole 12u Fireworks tournament with 12 teams. Last year, I believe this tournament had 63 teams entered. Many of who were stacked with good pitching and hitters. If I'm not mistaken, I believe only 3 teams from Texas finished in the top 10. The Texas Glory, '94 High Voltage, and the Houston Power. Three others made the top 20 and I believe they were the '95 TPS, '95 Kaos, and the Phantomz. All these teams were solid and still had to bang their way to the top of the bracket.
I hope that I am wrong, but with the exception of the '95 TPS, '95 Kaos, Texas Glory and Storm Elite, I'm not sure if any of the rest going this summer have the pitching, defense, and hitting necessary to get it done.
That said, you never know who might get on a little run and get in position to crack the top 10. So good luck to everyone and have fun representing the great state of Texas!!
