Severe and heavy thunderstorms passed through the area last night. Both fields at Holmdel HS are underwater and completely unplayable for the day, as is Phillips Park and 2 other area fields we had secured as a contingency plan for today. That leaves Brookdale CC and Geick Park as the only two fields we have available today.
The two suspended games from Saturday will be completed this morning at Brookdale and Geick as scheduled last night.
We will then take the top 2 teams from each pool to play quarterfinals. Two quarterfinals will be played at 11:00am and the other two at 12:45pm. The quarterfinal games will be 5 innings/1.5 hour time limit. The semifinals will be played at 2:15pm, 7 innings/2 hour time limit, followed by the championship at 5:00pm. Please check the tournament schedule page for locations.
Unfortunately with the loss of multiple fields today, we are not going to be able to run any consolation games. We apologize for this, however the weather is one thing we have absolutely no control over. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
