In Gainsville it is a round-robin tournament. The participants are the Dallas Tigers, Fort Worth Cats, Dallas Mustangs, and the Mckinney Marshals. Does anyone know anything about any of these teams? Who should be favored to win?

Can you post the details on the tournament. I might want to go out and catch a game.
Stangs 15's are somewhere called Burkburnett, Memorial weekend.
Mustangs have two 15U teams...one is playing in Gainsville and one is playing in Burkburnett over the Memorial Day weekend...
Collikar we will be in Burkburnett next weekend too--so maybe we will see you there!
DBAT 16 will be in Burkburnett as well -- I hope to meet some of you. 
PD,
Now that the playoffs are over
Collikar and T-Bird son will be there with Mustangs 15 (Sharp). Looking at the schedule, it looks like you might can meet up after your 5:30 game at Hays field on Saturday maybe.

My money is on the Tigers. They beat last year's Marshalls 5 straight times in the tournament finals. And the Mustang team playing in Gainsville is evidently their 2nd 15U team. Don't know about the Cats. but it should be real good baseball.
T-Bird--

Same teams, same games, times at Weatherford JC for 16U teams of same programs.
ballboy,
Tigers are a great team, one of my favorites. They are always considered "the team to beat". Looking back a year, in the five championship wins, in how many of those did Cain have a part in?

TBall, don't tell me you are one of those TEAMCAIN people? What about the other 8 kids? Geez, does everyone think he does it alone???

The Fort Worth Cats played well and took advantage of every opportunity that they were given and then created a few more just to make sure they got the win. Overall, at 4-0 they won the weekend.
The Marshals played two good games and beat the Mustangs and the Tigers. The other two were ugly losses to the Cats.
The Tigers seemed to be "coachless", who is the head coach for the U15 team?
They did not look like every inning of every game mattered to them, in every other game I have watched them play before this weekend it was different. This seemed like practice not a game to them.
Harrison is hurting and I heard he might be out a few weeks.
However,I am sure the Tigers will still kick some serious butt this summer. But they will miss Cain.
With two U15 Mustang teams this year I'm not sure if the one in at Gainsville this weekend was the A or the B team. But the team I watched has some talent and should grow together well.

A couple of the Tigers were not there. The head coach of this team is Tommy Hernandez but he was in Houston this weekend with another of his teams.
The NCTC/Gainesville tournament was not a true "play-off" style of tournament. It was just a "round robin" without any championship round.
I do agree that Colton Cain will be missed by the 15U/2009 Tigers. He'd be missed by any team. He's just very, very good. However, there are a number of other good players on this team.
Harrison does have some kind of hip injury.
From what I could tell, the Cats look like the old "Blue Jays" from Weatherford.

Was the third base coach of the old Blue Jays on the coaching staff of the FW Cats? He was one of those coaches you just can't seem to forget.

Yes, his voice is unforgettable. I think the 3rd base coach is the guy who has been the coach for the "Blue Jays" of the 2009 (graduation year) vintage for the last several years. That being said, I think he is new to the Cats organization. The 1st base coach, also appears to be his partner from the old "Blue Jays."
I notice there is a message board Id for the FW Cats. Maybe that person will clarify who the 15U coaches and players are.
