Frankfort Force 11U wins the Battle Creek, MI June Mayor’s Tournament

Traveling to Battle Creek, MI, the Frankfort Force 11U won the June Mayor’s Tournament.  Teams came from Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and Canada to compete in this Tournament.   

The Force had all cylinders clicking on the tournament’s first day and never trailed winning 3 games by scores of 9-1, 15-0, and 9-3.  On Sunday’s final day, they stumbled in their last game of pool play losing 9-1 to the Lake Central Indians from Northwest Indiana, but the solid Saturday play allowed the Force to earn the #2 seed and a berth into the semifinals.  In their semifinal game, which was delayed for 2 ½ hours because of rain, the Force came out firing and did not let the 90 degree heat and rain delay stop them from advancing to the Championship game.  They scored in every inning beating a solid team from Troy, MI by a score of 13-5. 

In the Championship game, the Force raised their level of play defeating the #1 seed, Lake Central Indians, by a score of 6-4.  The boys trailed 1-0 going into the 5^th inning, but they exploded for 5 runs in the 5^th and 1 in the 6^th to take a 6-3 lead going into the last inning.   Lake Central never quit by loading the bases, but the two great defensive plays allowed the Force to take home the Championship. 

Great Job Boys.

Team members include: Connor Alexa, Parker Bogdan, Bobby Hawkinson, Ian McCormick, Jeremy Nelson, Sean Robinson, Max Shafer, Zack Tencza, Nicholas Tortorici, Max Vaundry and Tony Witczak.

A note regarding the “Field Status” box on the website. There are 3 designations you will see on the site:

• N/A – This will be the normal, everyday status. Assume fields are open unless you hear differently from your manager or team mom. 
• Closed – This means that specific field is closed for that day.  
• Open  – On a questionable day when we had rain, the Open designation means we have the field open and ready for play.
