This last weekend, I worked the Tournament of Champions in Bullhead City, AZ. HS teams from California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, and Texas. Every team had won either a league or state title in the past few years. I worked twelve games over the course of the weekend, two games went to ITB (tourney rules), three games ended up 1-0. The tournament was won by Elkins HS from Missouri City, TX. They beat Mater Dei HS from the Los Angeles area 1-0. I had the Elkins team for three games, including the quarter-final and semi-final games. I was very impressed with this team.

Glen, I know that you do games around Houston. Have you seen this team?

Andy..any truth that the tournament is coming down here to PHX due to the umpire politics?..It would be nice...

Darrell,

I asked the AD of Mohave HS about that. He said that they are planning to hold the tournament as usual next year. The only change is that a new person will be running it. The guy that has run it for years has retired from teaching due to health issues and this was his last year.

However, I will wait and see.

Not seen them this year Andy. Do know that they are 21-0 overall.
Usually have a great team and in the playoffs. They did not go
to the Brenham tournament this year, but have in the past.
