The Cruisers Tournament was the best of the best in 14U. Per Bracky ranking, some of the Top teams fell, and 2 emerged, Firecracker Sota and Rodriguez. This is how this situation went..............
The FC-Rodriguez team was in the 3th ITB against Lady Magic, when one of their player broker her arm running to 1st base, it was a terrible fall, and they couldn't move the girl till they stabilized her arm, lucky Coach Cone was a Paramedic and helped the girl. By the time the Firecracker-Rodriguez team won in the 4ITB, it was almost 7:00pm, and DARK, their were NO lights, both teams wanted to played, but for the safety of the girls, one girl had already been injured badly, both Susan and Anthony decided to share the Championship.
That Sunday their were 3 games the went into ITB, and with the girl breaking her arm and the time it took to stabilize her arm and get her off the field, and FC to win, they ran out of time.
Just one note, the Cruisers stayed till the finish of the tournament, the fields were water and groomed, the snack bar was still open, and the hosting team, didn't pack up and leave before games were finished like in Surf City Championship game, so hats off to the Cruisers, great weekend of softball, except for FC injured player.
