  • Publisher's Comments by Mark Linnemann
    Publisher’s Comments by Mark Linnemann If someone had told me a year ago there would be forty three teams in the USSSA Major NIT held last month at Eggleston Park, and that less than two weeks later twenty teams would compete in the “Open” division of this year’s Cincinnati ASA Metro tournament, I would have suggested they have their head examined. After all, only sixteen teams played in the “Major” NIT at Eggleston last year, and even at that size it was one of the largest in the country. And the top division of the ASA city tournament attracted a paltry six teams in 2005. Additionally, there are only five USSSA “Major” and twenty “A” level teams actively participating in the USSSA tournament program in the entire country, and only a picayune three teams played in the ASA “Major” Division National Tournament last September in Sanford, Florida. So what could possibly attract forty three teams to a USSSA “Major” NIT or twenty to the “Open” division of the ASA Metro? According to area teams, it was a plethora of things, ranging from double points, world berths and travel money to atmosphere, exposure, the opportunity try to improve one’s team by playing superior competition, and the opportunity to lock horns with the very best teams in the country. And those were just some of the carrots that made these events so wildly successful. Playing against the best teams and earning travel money have drawn Freeze Concrete/James Arnold/BW3/Easton to the U-Trip “Major” NIT at Eggleston the last two years, says manager Homer Matheny.
