| Congratulations from the Millers to the Irish on their first State Championship and to the Pub for a great tourney and a hard fought runners-up. I believe this to be the fist State title to come from a Skyline League entrant and the first from the East side of the river since Glynns Building Products in 2000. Great Season and great job by two longtime top notch organizations. As always thanks to Shawn, Mary, Mike, Andre and everyone that put in so much time making every season so successful and enjoyable. God's blessings

| hats off to the Champs - Stockmens. Pub team gave it all we had and it wasnt enough. Next year we will try to use an unfamiliar route (winners bracket), it may prove to be a little easier on our two arms.. Congrats to all the teams that participated. Thanks to all the fans that attended. was a fun year - see you all next year!

| I want to add my thanks to all those who made the tourney possible. Great job once again.
Congratulations to all participating teams on your very successful seasons.
To our opponents thanks for well played fun games. But, especially to the Pub....what a gutsy performance. You never quit & battled to the last out. You played the game the way it is supposed to be played and in doing so made our win that much more meaningful.
I hope everyone has a safe & productive winter.
See you at the ball park next summer.

| First and foremost, Congrats to the Irish. You definitely were the best team that day. Thanks for being classy in your win as well as being some pretty good dudes in the parking lot as well. We did beat you in the parking lot battle though.
Also want to say that the game against the Millers was a classic. Such a great team all the way around.
Hell of a tourney. Thanks to my teammates for a great year.
I do think that there should be something on the home page announcing that the Irish won. I remember looking at this forum all year before the season started seeing the victory that Tonka had last year. Let's give the Irish some credit here. Just because the Yankee's didn't win doesnt mean that we can't send out a press release on the site. Also send out the All Tournament Team.
Maybe we will see you all again next year. You never know what might happen in the offseason.
