Lazeek Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Is it this weekend? As far as the TC teams go I know that the Storm is very good. They have 3-4 kids on that team that made the TC Shetland "A" All Star team last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daddy23 Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 I don't want to out anyone, but Vidor will have a few good teams and one Very Good team in the Tournament...you will know them when you see them. However, I would look to see some strong teams from everywhere else as well. There were lots of good 5 year-olds last year in both tournaments.

texcoug Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Tournament starts 5/16 and Vidor will host. Larry Dial is leading it up and will do a good job (along with lots of other Vidor helpers). Vidor has 8 teams and four returning coaching staffs. Sounds like the Storm is loaded. There is only one player from the A squad last year playing in Shetland this year in Vidor.

texcoug Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 That kid is a MONSTER! He catches everything that comes his way and has a great stick as well. He is okay -- but his (barely) 4 YO brother is the one to be afraid of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texcoug Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Which team is your's Texcoug???? Jason Sylvester is the head coach and I assist on the Astros (my second boy was the little 4 YO on the Astros last year). Jason is the father of our P in Allstars (only 5 YO on team) and a great coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vidor Astros advance (play TC Express today). Orange Indians beat Vidor Royals in a close game. Final 2 games moved to Sunday because of rain.

MJB Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Orange 2 (Red Sox) won a good game over Groves 1. Personally it was a sweet victory for me as the same cackling, unruly fan I had to deal with at the Groves Pinto event had a player on the Groves 1 team we beat. A fan should never act like that, never. It makes me want to climb the fence and give them a lecture on ethics when they erupt in cheer when a player at this level strikes out. That is completely uncalled for with kids at this level. Our game has been moved to 3pm from the 1:30 slot for Sunday/ We played on the third from the back field and it was great, you could tell they spent some time over the last few weeks prepping. Great job to Vidor on that field. I wish we had that to play on in Orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan1603 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 TC B's and TC Storm both advanced. It's going to be a good game tomorrow against the Vidor Astros. Good Luck to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job to Vidor on that field. I wish we had that to play on in Orange. Kudos to Larry Dial, Toby Strother, Ashley Adams, Jason Sylvester and everyone who has helped maintain the Shetland field this year -- it is in great shape thanks to them. Same is true to Byron Lee for the Pinto field (the field at the back). Byron has done a great job. How those guys got the field looking so good after all the rain on it late Saturday is beyond me, but it looked and played great today. A lot of the Pinto coaches have helped with the field, books (moms, etc.). Hal has done a great job mc-ing down there. I think that Vidor has done a tremendous job with this tournament. Still a lot of baseball left. Tough game tomorrow between TC Storm and Vidor Astros. Also, the Groves Indians will play a tough Tiger team. The other matchups will be tight between the Angels and Pirates (they have already tied twice this year) and the TC Bees and Orange Indians will be a dandy. Good luck to everyone.

VPATH Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Thanks for noticing the field MJB. I totally agree with you on that fan. I was in the stands keeping score, I and several other Vidor coaches could not believe that happened. Anyway, good job on getting that win!

texcoug Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Vidor Astros beat the TC Storm Orange Indians beat the TC Bees Vidor Angels defeated the Vidor Pirates Vidor Tigers defeated the Groves Indians in a nail-biter,17-16 with the winning run scoring in the bottom of the 5th from 2b with 2 outs. So, the Astros will play the Orange Indians in one semi-final and the Angels play the Tigers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratefan Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 I don't know who was playing the late game,but it was LOUD.. I had a game on the front field (Mustang) and all I heard was non stop excitement. I wanted my game to end early so I could come and watch..Good Luck to the teams still left.

daddy23 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 3 out of the 4 games tonight were 1-run games..... And the TC Storm unfortunately ran into a GREAT defensive perfomance tonight by the Vidor Astros. They did not deserve to leave the tournament as early as they did. Congrats to all the teams that have played so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
