Anyone know when the schedule will be released? You would think with it starting on a Wednesday it would be released with enough time to allow people to get off work, travel plans, etc. Only 10 teams, can't be that difficult. |

Not out yet. Seems kind of late to me as well, but putting it in perspective of other tournaments, it is not so different. Often, brackets come out as late as Wednesday and games begin on Friday, so getting the brackets out today would be about the same from a timing standpoint.
The difference to me is that most tournaments run Friday through Sunday and most people have those days off already. This one starts Wednesday, so I can understand the frustration. I would imagine the coaches of the teams in the tournament aren't happy about it either. |

Coaches have schedules. Link will be sent to them shortly. I will post on this board once I get it.
BTW- getting a schedule on Monday for a Thur-Sun tournament is better than most.
Good luck to all... |

Predictions?
it's been a while since all of the top teams have been in the same tourny. I like the Astros to take the title. Format of best 2 of 3 final seems like a big advantage for the 'stros. Should be a fun weekend. |

Schedules will be out in about an hour or so.
We are follwing USSSA seeding and pool play rules.
The two teams usssa has added will be inserted where their points put them.
Keep Playing! |

bball2k10,
USSSA told us to add the additional 2 teams. That's why!
I would think there are a few teams that love the changes...
One Hard bracket and One easy bracket.....based off USSSA rules... |

What exactly does that mean? Are you saying one pool is made up of of strong teams and the other weak? |

Pulpwood, Does the site I sent out not work? The USSSA site will be where everything is updated with scores, pitching, and bracket paly. |

bball2k10,
I meant that the way it is has been layed out favors one pool over the other. You always have people that think 1 pool is stronger than another.
No disrespect meant to anyone, but adding 2 teams definently change the strength of both pools. |
