@ethan_helinski @11point7 Really tough to eject here. I don’t know what he said though, but I would have given a warning first.

With that said, I hate this stuff. Be excited, but don’t be a clown towards other team.

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

Going to be a fun summer with these dudes.

[Michigan Select 16u @miselect16u]

Lots of awards coming in for our Michigan Select 16u squad. First up is our Saginaw Valley League winners. @EvanJanni41288 1st Team, @Evanking21 2nd Team, and @Owen_King19 Honorable Mention. One of the best leagues in the state!

By far the best freshman arm I saw all year, but also top 2-3 overall. Legit stuff and aggressive in the zone.

@papawaha2 @NJCAARegion12 @PB_JUCO The other D2 with a full roster next year probably gets a pass too, and the D1’s obviously.

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

A lot of really good college baseball programs in Michigan at all levels. JUCO, NAIA, D3, and D2 all have teams ranked highly. But we will have just 2, possibly 3 D1 teams even make their conference tournament and not sure if any make NCAA Tourney. Interesting to think about why.

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

@papawaha2 @NJCAARegion12 I will say all the D1’s are playing their final regular season series this weekend.

And we do have 3 D2’s playing in regionals. Then I know one of the D2’s in Michigan doesn’t have room to add anyone.

But I would still think you would see a few others there.

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

Huge win for these guys to open up regional play. Their opponent came into the game hitting nearly .350. @drew_huard knows how to develop, manage, and win.

[Madonna Baseball @MUCrusadersBSB]

Final scores from game 1! 🔥

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

@JCBanfield @KendallRogers Good. That needed to happen.

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

@InkblotSports @GLIACsports Yeah, I can maybe understand it more in a regional setting. But in a conference tournament it doesn’t make sense to me. Reward the 1 and 2 seed with a bye…they earned it by a season of results.

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

How do you lose the first game of a conference tournament and then have to turn around the next day and play the 1 seed who won their first game??? @GLIACsports make it make sense. Do better!

[Jason Ball @CoachJasonBall]

@BeasleyKari @CMUBaseball @AdamJaksa and his partner are top notch.

@mikerice02 No. It would have to land fair
