Top 5 in C
1. Linedrive - An excellent tourney down at the Motor City Major. This is 2 Majors in a row that they played with some of the best in the country and won some games along the way. If they play like they did this weekend for the rest of the summer, they're gonna be tough to beat
2. TG/TPS - Still one of the most consistent teams in the region. They play stellar O and D and can play with any team in the country and win a ball game or two
3. R & L - Strictly based on recent head to head (I think these teams are neck and neck right now), R & L is gonna stay at the 3 spot. How often the Michigan teams will see them this year is up in the air but when they make the trip North, their coming here to win
4. Mayhem - Finally a tourney win for Mayhem, albeit in a small field. This coupled with their good run at Liberty is just the boost they needed to get going
5. Plumbers - Still getting good results over in NSA they are staying top 5. Can't wait to see them play ball again
Surprise of the week - Linedrive
Tied for 5th at the Major NIT and turning alot of heads along the way
Disappointment of the week - Barrachos
Not a good showing this weekend for a team with alot higher expectations from fans and themselves
Top 5 in D
1. Mush Reloaded - Nothings changed here. Still the class of D
2. DO/Mushtube - Reluctantly they're gonna stay at 2 for now. They had a decent showing this weekend but they didn't seem like the same team from the last tourney
3. Drama - Not bad for a tourney where they were missing a handful of regular starters. If they could squeak out a couple of wins in field like this, they should only improve with their full lineup
4. Phillies - A weekend off but still having a good season and should be ready to start going in a couple weeks
5. Blue Crush - I had them top 5 to start, but after their first awfuls showing, they have improved every time out since. With big wins this weekend over DO, a tough Crew team and finally finding their offense, they could be getting back on track
Surprise of the week - Crew
3rd place finish and being in every game they played, this was a great tournament for them
Disappointment of the week - Specialty Modifications
After a nice run last weekend, they looked pretty bad this time out. 4 runs in 2 games won't win a whole lot in any class
Top 5 in E
1. Trust/Wicked - A nice come from behind win against Repo gives them yet another tourney win on the year
2. Repo Monkey - The only thing slowing them down is that they keep running into the buzzsaw that is Trust/Wicked
3. Trust Sports - A good run with a solid defense that surprised me a little bit. That's a 2 weekends in a row that they have come out and played very well with their new lineup
4. X Factor - Another good tournament, letting alot of their young guys get alot of time this weekend, they are one of the most consistent teams in E
5. Aftermath - Getting better every weekend and clicking as a team, they are going to put alot of pressure on some teams in the next few months.
Surprise of the week - Team Turmoil
They really left it all on the diamond and put together a great weekend. If they could just square away their pitching, they could very well get some more games on Sunday the rest of the way
Disappointment of the week - Irish Swagger
They had a good thing going and just kind of let the wheels fall off this weekend. I think this is an exception with all their young talent, but the team vets will have to teach them how to win in big team fields
Have a safe holiday weekend everyone!
