Kitchener, ON
Five Canada East Region teams headed to the ISC World Tournament
May 30, 2007 - ISC Canada East Vice-President Blair Setford is pleased to announce that along with the host Kitchener Hallman Twins, four additional teams from the Canada East Region will be competing in the 2007 ISC World Tournament.
Orillia Riversharks, who earned a berth by winning the ISC Travel League championship last year, entered the season as the top-ranked team and will be looking to improve on last year's third-place finish.
Jarvis Merchants are coming off a third-place finish at last year's Canadian Senior Men's Championship and are ranked just outside the top 10 in 11th in the pre-season rankings.
Innerkip Eagles earned a berth in last weekend's Erie tournament and will be playing in their seventh consecutive ISC World Tournament.
St. Thomas Centennials will be playing in their first World Tournament as a team, although they are loaded with experienced players up and down their lineup.
"The Canada East Region will be well represented by these five teams," said Setford. "Any of them can beat any other team in fastball on a given day and I expect all of them will be playing on the last couple of days in Kitchener in August."
The ISC World Tournament is being held for the second straight year and third time in the last six years in Kitchener, Ontario. The tournament starts Friday August 10 and concludes Saturday August 18.
