Congratulations!

Erie, PA
Since the 2010 season has concluded, and all of the awards have been handed out, I thought it might be appropriate to give one last hearty congratulations to some deserving folks behind the scenes of the two major championship teams. The winning teams would not have been on the circuit this season without their great owners/sponsors. Thank you to "Doc" Simmons--- Broken Bow, Nebraska; Dave Anderson--- Truro, Nova Scotia; and Clarke Staats--- Jarvis, Ontario with the ISC World Champion Jarvis Travelers and Jim Hallman and Bob Nydick with the ASA National Champion Kitchener Riversharks.
I was able to watch both of these fine teams in Kitchener, Erie, South Bend, and Midland this season. Also, congratulations for outstanding seasons to the Gremlins and Chicago/New York. Thanks to Albaugh for coming to Erie"s tourney and fine play in Midland. And, way to go Pa. Power at the ISC.
In conclusion, I wish to say "great job" ,Midland, for this year's ISC, thanks to all of the teams who made my fastball spectating so enjoyable this summer, and I hope to see my softaball friends in 2011.
