Students from each of the five participating schools were divided among the six teams. A game of three pitch resembles a game of baseball except that each batter gets only three pitches. The advantage is that the batter is pitched to by a member of his/her own team. Each team played five games. No particular school won the event but it was a fun day for all the students.
