Nor - Cal 12U Spring Summer Rankings

[lookingIN]

Heat Cota 2000 has 1 (one) 1999 player, 9 (nine) 2000 players and 1 (one) 2001 FYI.

Well they are not a true 2000 team than. I think after the next couple of tourny's, Grapettes Kapp will be ranked 10.The KG hitters will move up one or two and Extreme will fall down 2 or 3 spots. I feel 1 to 3 is solid for now. But every week Norwood's team is getting better. I expect a lot of movement from 6 to 10. My Dark horse team is still San Jose Sting.

Not age pure, but a few of the '00 teams aren't...KG Hitters included. But it all comes down to which teams belong in the top 10, regardless of their age. KG is legit. Heat-Cota I think will come out in the next poll.

A few tourneys are up before the end of the month but the fields might not tell us much. In Sac ASA, Heat '99 and Mizuno-Stone are in but Mizuno-Garcia and Team Xtreme are playing up in 14's. Even if they don't have good showings, probably not anything to drop them in the rankings for playing up. RR Gold has a tourney but RR-Miller is playing up, too. In the 12's in that tourney, could come down to KG Hitters and Grapettes-Kappmeyer. At the end of the month, All-American tourney has a strong pool and eyes should be on that to see who goes deep. Grapettes have a tourney same day, probably between Kappmeyer and MSC Tigers.

Who has the info on how our NorCal teams did in St Patty's over the weekend? Heard Mizuno-Garcia did pretty well and that Grapettes-Norwood had a rough go but don't have much in terms of details and who won the tourney.

[99NorCal]

My Dark horse team is still San Jose Sting.

After what happened at PGF, the dark horse looks to be CC Dirt Dogs over Sting. A 15-6 win in the first game when it matters.

But looks like the 3 berths will all be SoCal from the qualifier:

Anyone see the game between Xtream & Stone? Stone beat them 3-1

[MommysPitcher]

Also Garcia beat Stone 4-1 in the semi championship. And Garcia beat Heat 99 17-3 in the championship. That really upsets the ranking.

A lot has happened since the last ranking. I believe 1st to 3rd said he/she would do another at the beginning of April, so that will be one person's perspective. Not a lot of softball has happened due to the rain, tourneys being canceled, teams dropping and so on. But we did have the USSSA Luck of the Irish, teams from our area go to the SoCal Premier qualifier and the ASA All-American tourney this weekend. Two strong teams originally scheduled to play in the AA tourney this weekend didn't, so the field changed. Yes, there might have been some other tourneys, but if teams are winning NSA, DF or whatever, they need to find a way to show against these ranked teams on Sunday when it matters.

Here's my current ranking.

1. RR Gold - Could stay #1 all year. Mizuno Garcia only contender.
2. Mizuno Garcia - Won two ASA tourneys. Best local showing in Vegas ASA.
3. Team Xtreme - Lost to Mizuno Stone but down #1 pitcher to short-term injury.
4. CC Dirt Dogs - Best showing of our region at Premier qualifier.
5. Grapettes-Norwood - Aggressive team but didn't show well at Premier.
6. San Jose Sting - Lost to Dirt Dogs at Premier.
7. KG Hitters Tracy - Best 00/99 mix team in the region. 1st place USSSA Luck of Irish.
8. Roseville Heat LaGabed - 2nd place in latest ASA.
9. Mizuno Stone - 3rd place in latest ASA, beat Team Xtreme (see above). 2nd place USSA to KG.
10. Grapettes-Kappmeyer - Stronger at the beginning of the year. Will come back.

Nope, same pitcher from Stone from last season. Maybe Stone's team got better? And yes pitcher from Stone's last year spring team was pitcher on Xtream.
