The Corunna Giants
PeeWee team claimed the
2014 OBA PeeWee 'C'
Championship after
winning 6 of 7 games
over Labour Day weekend
in Leamington.
The Giants opened the
tournament with a Friday
night 14-11 victory over
Tecumseh and then reeled
off 3 more victories on
Saturday over Essex
(13-4), Leamington
(8-7), and Tillsonburg
(15-4).
As the only unbeaten
team heading into Sunday
the Giants stayed in the
driver's seat with a
12-8 Semi-Final victory
over Kincardine to head
to the Finals without a
loss.
The Giants would have
two cracks at the
Championship as the
other Semi winner,
Tillsonburg, would have
to win twice in
succession to claim the
title.
The first game was the
only time in the
tournament that the
Giants' bats did not
dominate and Tillsonburg
came away with a 11-1
mercy win to force a
'winner-takes-all'
Championship Game.
The Giants would not be
denied as they played
their best game of the
tournament putting on
clinic on both offence
and defense.
The bats blasted out
double digits in hits
while they played one
hit, no error baseball
in the field.
Corunna came out on top
with a dominating 11-0
mercy win to claim the
2014 OBA Championship!
This is the 3rd
OBA Championship for
this group as they also
won the title in their
Major Rookie and Major
Mosquito seasons.
