| May 2, 2009 SteveSimmons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: new england tourn. may 16 and 17 The 50's, 55's and 60's are playing strictly on the weekend. There are just two days to get 27 teams their guaranteed six games each. There are five fields at the CT Sportsplex complex and the tournament must be complete by 4:00 PM on Sunday to accommodate the existing baseball schedule. Because of the limitations a round robin seeding format will be utilized followed by a variety of championship rounds. If it's two teams in a bracket the championship round will be best-of-three. If it's a small bracket (three or four teams) a conventional double elimination championship round will probably be played. The larger brackets will play single elimination championship rounds with some also offering consolation play to meet the guaranteed game total. The 65'5, 70's and 75's will be playing Monday thru Wednesday. This group has fewer teams and will play over three days. The first day will be a three game seeding round. The final two days will offer a modified double elimination (three games guaranteed) championship round. The tournament schedule will be published during the first part of this coming week. The schedule will be distributed to each team via e-mail. |

| March 15, 2006 SteveSimmons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: FIRST ANNUAL NEW ENGLAND QUALIFIER The Minnesota Masters will attend this tournament and are looking forward to playing out east for the first time in their club history. The Minnesota Masters welcome the opportunity to take on some of the senior teams from the Eastern seaboard as well as sample some of the scrumptious seafood served in New England. |
| Nov. 10, 2005 SteveSimmons | Topic: Women's softball Discussion: Rankings Enviro-vac - The statistics listed take into account all games played over the four days of the tournament. That includes four pool play games and eight bracket games. Lecak - You sound like a stat-man yourself. You have made an excellent observation. Whenever a team plays in a tournament where there is an inning run rule, and fairly consistently reaches the inning max, the team's batting average will be considerably higher than if the inning were played out to its three outs. |
| Nov. 10, 2005 SteveSimmons | Topic: Women's softball Discussion: Rankings Here are the MN Masters individual statistics from their championship win at the 2005 SSWC 55AAA tournament in Phoenix, AZ. Randy Simonson, 702 BA, 0 HR Lon Stole, 681 BA, 0 HR Don Klatt, 676 BA, 3 HR Tony Wilfahrt, 675 BA, 0 HR Daryl Cooper, 640 BA, 1 HR Dave Weber, 632 BA, 0 HR Larry Nelson, 625 BA, 2 HR Gene Thompson, 600 BA, 0 HR Tom Walsh, 590 BA, 1 HR (inside-the-park) Tony Udean, 585 BA, 0 HR Chuck Raab, 535 BA, 1 HR Jerry Stiele, 382 BA, 1 HR (inside-the-park) Garry Russell, 364 BA, 0 HR Tom Engfer, --- BA, 0 HR Jerry Otto, --- BA, 0 HR The MN Masters won this tournament by combining solid, balanced and timely hitting with outstanding team defense. The MN Masters hit 609 as a team and averaged 18.0 runs per game while allowing 13.7 runs per game. They hit just seven "over-the-fence" home runs in twelve games. The MN Masters were three outs from elimination on Sunday morning when, after losing by a resounding 17 runs to Russell Real Estate (CA), they found themselves down 11-8 in the bottom of the seventh to Master Collision (CO) in the very next game. They managed to score four to eke out a one run victory. The MN Masters played six consecutive games, having to win the last five in a row, to gain the championship on Sunday. The championship game was truly that, a "toe-to-toe" tilt between two teams refusing to give in to the other. It took the MN Masters' best offensive output of the entire tournament and another bottom of the seventh rally to edge an excellent Diamond Diabetics (FL) team by a 27-26 score. The MN Masters have earned their way into the 55 Major division and gratefully accept the challenge of playing at that level in 2006. There will be no appeal, name change or subterfuge, the MN Masters adhere to the rules of senior softball and abide by the decisions of the national senior softball ratings committee. |
