Blyth took a 4-1 lead through two before adding one in the fourth and opening up the game in the fifth. The squad struck for eight runs to go ahead 13-3. While keeping their opponent off the board, Blyth topped up the tally with two in the sixth and six in the seventh. The final was 21-4. The bats of several players were hot as Trevor Koehler went five for five; David Kelly and Mark Cald­ well, four for five and Kirk Stewart and Ryan McClinchey, four for six. With one victory in the best-of- three series, Blyth welcomed Teeswater to town three nights later. Teeswater pushed one across in the first with Blyth retaliating with two. The teams traded one and two- run innings through the top of the sixth, resulting in a 6-6 tie. Blyth took control of the game, knocking six runs home for a com­ manding lead. Teeswater was unable to mount a comeback in the seventh. Stewart and Andy Toll were three for four with the bat while Jamie Ross and Kelly were one for one. One of Toll's hits was a home- run. Blyth took the series in two games and will now advance to the semi-finals against Fullarton.

Twenty-one years later, St. Pauls reclaimed the Brussels tournament championship holding their opponents to two runs scored over four games. The Generals opened the tourna­ ment with a 15-1 mercy of the Brussels Bulldogs, followed by a 16-strikeout performance of Paul Horenberg to defeat Collingwood 4-1.

K-W Pride had edged Sebring- ville 3-2, shutout Wroxeter 6-0, and quieted a large hometown crowd with a 3-1 win against the Brussels Tigers to reach the finals. In the consolation the Camlachie Sox lost their opener 6-1 to Wroxe­ ter, then defeated Sebringille 2-1, Goderich 6-0 and Fullarton 5-4.
