Over 80 DFW baseball players will be at this event. That is an excellent statement about baseball in North Texas.
I hope some of our faithful fans will keep us updated on the games as they progress.

Marshals defeated Cangelosi '09 2-1 this afternoon to go undefeated (3-0) in pool play.
Looks like the Dragon teams took it on the chin in pool play. Outscored 48-8 with wood bats. Ouch!
Dallas Yankees get great pitching performances from Rebels Cody King (10-2 win over Doyles Dawgs) and Cody Polk (6-5 win over the Lumberjacks). 
Marshals (#6) and Team Demarini (#8) the two Texas teams advancing to the 32-team championship bracket, each winning their respective pools.
Yankees "got great pitching performances" but came up 4th in their pool. Something else must have gone wrong.

Congrats to the Marshalls and Team Demarini and best wishes as you continue to compete! Do Texas proud!
Younger kids playing up and competing.Sounds like sour grapes from Owasso RD. You fail to mention there were three 17yr teams in that pool worse than they were. Good Luck to the Marshalls and DeMarini>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

My thoughts exactly.
Mom called and said Marshals beat Central Florida Renegades 12-0. Will play winner of Midland/Team D at 11ish.
Going to the fair to see the "Jonas Brothers???" with my 3 girls. Someone keep me posted....
Adios...

Team Demarini VS McKinney Marshals at 11:20 in the semi finals..
Way to go Polk and King. Dang, throw Cotton (and little Polk) in that rotation and I can assure you the Rebels will rise again shortly.
Yuk...for those of us in the district

So, the Marshals went unbeaten in the tourney? Wow -- very impressive! Congratulations MM!

Congrats to the Marshalls
Congrats to the Marshalls...
I coached the Cangelosi 09 team that lost to them 2-1- in pool play. Game was as good as it gets, and their coaching staff was a pleasure to compete against. I told my guys on the day of the loss that a very good team beat them, I am glad I was right.
Congrats guys!!

Congratulations to the McKinney Marshals!
With both Team Demarini and the Marshals playing so well maybe East Cobbs isn't so big after all.
Texas baseball can flatout compete!!!

Tap the brakes, Meatsdad.

That has always been very obvious. Does anyone think differently. BTW, East Cobb baseball is still very big!
Congrats to the Texas teams. The McKinney Marshalls were a great champion both on and off the field in Florida. This is a high class and well coached organization.
Yeah, when East Cobb splits their 16U & 17U Teams in half and then adds kids to give more of them opportunities at this particular event. East Cobb full strength...no chance.
Dillion - No "ifs" or "but" needed....this was a nice tournament win by the McKinney Marshals...
Congrats to the Marshals!
Congrats to the Marshals!
What a great tournament for all but especially the North Texas teams.
The Marshals played very well going undefeated at 8-0. The most runs they allowed was against Team DeMarini at 4. They also pitched three shutouts on the bracket.
Team DeMarini also played well on the bracket by beating perennial national powerhouses Orlando Scorpions, Midland Braves and the #1 Seed Knight's Baseball before losing to the Marshals.
Texas baseball is alive and well.

tychco#1 son's Mustang team played the East Cobb teams this past summer. VERY good teams and his team was fortunate to beat them.
Perhaps they do not display the best sportsmanship at all times
, but the teams are talented.
Congrats to the Marshals, that is a quality tournament win.

Not saying that anyone can't beat someone on any given day...that's why they play the game right? The Marshals are a first class organization, and defeated some good teams to win this particular tournament.
However, to say "Maybe East Cobb isn't so big after all" is ridiculous. That's one of the most prestigious if not THE most prestigious baseball organizations in all of select baseball. They have won over 125 National Titles for crying out loud. When you go to the 'alumni' section on their website you have to select players by last name or organization for pro ball, or by the specific college because of the amount of ex-players they have in the college and pro ranks. It's quite impressive. Perfect Game doesn't just choose to play their WWBA summer tournaments there for no reason. East Cobb in addition to being an elite baseball organization has a first class facility and a first class staff. They are 'a big dog' in the select baseball world.
But...they're no DBAT!
No, seriously, East Cobb is the real deal.

Dillon,
Who cares, they didn't win this time

Dillion - I think all (or most all) here would agree that East Cobb has an outstanding program and outstanding track record but I don't think that fact should take anything away or "dilute" what the Marshals accomplished on the field this past weekend.

However, we don't look at the loss as "something going wrong."
The Yankees won their consolation game on Sunday evening, giving them a tournament record of 3-1. Pretty good for the second youngest team at the tournament.
Congrats to the yankees on their wins. No disrespect intended in my post regardless of what LD thinks.
Rebel said the yanks had great pitching. I wasn't questioning that. I didn't see the games. I was thinking about the Lumberjacks game. Assuming the pitching, I was suggesting that maybe the defense wasn't what you'd have liked resulting in the 5 runs allowed. The PG game wraps don't list errors or distinguish ER from R.
Again, with no disrespect to the yanks fine pitcher, I don't consider a line of 5 2/3 IP, 6 hits, 5 runs, 4 bb, 4 k to be a great pitching performance as Rebel characterizes. Just my opinion with the limited info in the line score.
Also my opinion, once the games start its about hitting, pitching, fielding, throwing, and running, not about your age. You don't enter a tourney if you don't feel you match up in those regards. You know the competition going in. Age shouldn't be a crutch or a hammer after its over.
Dillon - That's a lot of EC suc*king up. You interviewing?
6-5 win 
PD, no need to suggest I apply the brakes...that is why I have a wife.
Dillon, my comments were not ridiculous at all and they were absolutely meant with respect to the Big Dog of Select Baseball.
I love the model they use and if they called Meat he would consider moving to Atlanta for the summer to play on one of their teams. I have a friend who lives in Marietta and it would be an easy choice to make.
My point was to encourage our Texas team to never play in awe of them or any other team from any where else in this country because Texas baseball is great.
Imagine if Dallas held as many tournaments at the same level that are held at the East Cobb Complex every summer, year in and year out , with all the Top National A Level teams coming here. Playing that level of competition would only make our boys better. More kids would be coming to play here from around state and the country like they do for the East Cobb teams.
East Cobb has a great formula and it produces champions.
I think the Marshals are playing at a high level and might stay there through next summer, they won the Premier League for there age and I think there might have been a "non-mixed" East Cobb team in that tournament.
PS - Maybe the Metro Scout League can grow into a formula that works like East Cobb but for the fall. Also, many of the Marshals played in the Metro Scout League prior to going to Ft Myers, you have to believe that swinging the wood for three weeks before the tournament helped them hit better.

Sorry thats probably not an option
A*S in Here - I have never cared for any of your post.
How does your post add any value to this discussion of how well the Marshals representated Texas and how Texas Select Baseball can stand with any program in the country?
