Hogs Finish Second In Radom, Il.

June 19, 2006

Random, IL

The DeKalb Hustle Hogs continued their winning ways as they finished second in the Terry Dearing Memorial Tournament in Radom, Il..  The tournament was run very professionally with very good umpiring and the atmosphere was very friendly.  I suggest everyone try and get in this quality tournament.  The Hogs will definitely go back in 2007 if the schedule permits.  The Radom Falcons run the event and did a great job in prepping the field before every game, announcing, DJ'ing, and running concessions.

Matt Smith was named tournament MVP, hitting .471 with a HR and 4RBI while scoring 7R.   Other notables included Chad Crutcher 6x15 3RBI 5R, Tim Muprhy 6x18 HR 6RBI, Vince Virtue 6x15 2RBI, Joe Crouch 3x8 HR.  The Hogs improved to 11-7.  The Hogs lost Tommy Crouch (abdomen strain) and Brian Crouch (hamstring) each in the first two games. Now, onto the scores..
