# 1 Ohio Ice - Dominant 52 mph pitcher with a nice change up and outstanding control. Defeated the 10U Lady Lasers in the championship game of the Spano NSA Qualifier in February and the 9U Lady Lasers in pool play. The Ice finished this competitive tournament undefeated.
# 2 Lady Lasers 10U - Bats and 50 mph+ pitching. Finished runner up to Ohio Ice at Spano. Only loss at Spano was to the Ice.
# 3 Ohio Stingrays - Bats, bats, bats, and more bats. Power and small ball hitters. Loss both games to the 10U Lasers at Spano.
# 4 Lady Lasers 9U - Bats, speed, and pitching. 2007 NSA 8U World Series Champions.
# 5 Valley Extreme - Pitching
These top 5 with a couple newbies should compete nicely this year, unlike 2007 when the 10U Lasers dominated Ohio and went 63-0.
This is a long term forecast but watch out for the 9U Lasers in 2009, they could once again be a national contender.
