If they invest in some Temp fencing at 225' they will own the Fastpitch market in Cincy. jmho

I was in Bob's ear a couple times about fencing this weekend. He knows the importance and actually is somewhat setup for the fence system already. I won't be surprised at this point to see fences in the near future. Bob, thanks for what you and Betty do.

Any scores from 16u.

WE THE HH ROADWARRIORS 16U FINISHED THIRD JUST WONDERING WHO WON IT.

WOULD HAVE TO AGREE ABOUT THE FENCES, MOST PARKS THAT ARE BECOMING GREAT VENUES FOR FAST-PITCH WERE STRICTLY SLOW PITCH DIAMONDS IN THE 80'S AND 90'S. BEAVERCREEK IS ANOTHER GOOD EXAMPLE OF THAT.

AS FAR AS PUTTING ON A TOURNAMENT EXPRESSWAY EXCEEDED ALL EXSPECTATIONS ALL THE POST'S WE READ PRIOR TO GOING THIS WEEKEND WERE DEAD WRONG GREAT ATSMOPHERE FOR EVERYONE WE HAD A GREAT TIME.HOPE THERE MORE TOURNY'S IN THE FUTURE.

CONGRATS TO JOHN AND THE MV VIPERS ON MAKING IT TO THE FINALS ALWAYS FUN PLAYING YOUR GIRLS.GOOD LUCK THE REST OF THE WAY THIS YEAR.

Hard to have this kind of fun anywhere else in Cincy!!!

The party during the day was almost too much, we were down from the dancing and sugar crash after the girls ate 10 cupcakes!!!

Since I have had no problem telling everyone about what i thought was a poorly designed schedule
I must tell everyone the Smokey Baker tourny was without a doubt the best run
tournament I have played in this year in the cincy area
game schedule was set up great, we had enough time to snack at the concession stand also the games where on time and fields were lined between games

VERY WELL DONE

Mike McNutt took lots of action shots of the girls. If you want to see if your daughter and/or players happen to be one of those please email: mcnutt821@sbcglobal.net and Mike will send you an invite and you can download the picture.

Congrats Bob, I am pleased to hear things went very well for Expressway this weekend. Here's to hoping Expressway continues to step up its product and separate itself from its competitors. Cincinnati needs a fastpitch park to call "home."

VALLEY STORM WINS THE 18U GOLD BRACKET. :yahoo:

Gave up just 9 runs all weekend and scored 24.

Great job Ladies !!

Awesome Tournament Bob & Betty.
Can't tell you how amazed I am at the field conditions during and after the rains. The games being ahead of schedule really was amazing.

Great job to all at Expressway Park. On time, shorter lines at concession. Re-lining fields and prepping the pitcher's rubber between games. Umpiring was better. (still have a weak one or two, but much better than the early bird tourney)
You can tell they are really trying to improve with every tournament.
Count on us next year.

Can't wait to see the temporary fences if you can make it happen!

I totally agree! It was a great tournament once again for Expressway Park. It seems that Bob and Betty have figured out the magic formula on how to run a successful tournament. If you haven't played a tourney at this park, do yourself a favor and sign up for one!

Wasn't there, but from the praises, sounds like someone is listening to the suggestions on the other thread.

Good Job Expressway ! :yahoo:
