Stockton Metro Results

[rbi]

It was an all GRAPETTE show in Stocktown, as the 10s,12s,14's,16's and 18's all won their age group's and qualified for Nationals..

Yes, I heard it was a heck of a 2 team tournament in the 12's

All Sarah can do is play who is put in front of them, she cant control the other 100 12U teams in her metro that decided not to play. Hats off to the Crush who were clearly outmatched for showing up at least and giving it all they had. Sure it would have been nice to have a 20 team metro in 12's but, you cant blame Sarah or the Grapes for that not happening...

Sarah does a good job with the talent she is given each year, a couple years ago she took a team and placed 2nd at HOF and 3rd at ASA Nationals (when is last time a local team did that), so regardless of who shows up in our little metro each year, when it comes time to play her teams do just fine..

Very well said rbi. It was Smash though not crush but your point is a good one either way

My question would be has the IFA taken all the good teams from ASA. Where were the R&R Gold teams they had 2 good teams. Or was the early filing date the reason several team didn't enter?

Surprise was on you then cuz that 2nd game was by far, one of the WORST performances Grapes have played this season, ask 'em & the'll admit it... Pitcher that game hadn't thrown much in 2 weeks due to an injury, and it showed; stats on the books before and since are proof enough. 2nds all through the lineup... I could go on, yet they STILL sent you packin' after game 2...
