| The NJSSA 60’s Tournament and had repeat winners in the “A” and “C” Divisions and a 1st time winner in the “B’s”’ | ||||||||||
| The “A” Division final brought together the 2011, 2012 Champion, Rod’s Tavern (Monmouth) vs past State Champion Awnings Galore II (Union). Rod’s swept the two games, winning 21-12 and 18-8. The games were more competitive than the scores indicated. Rod’s is now a 3 time Champion and hopefully will be back in 2014 to defend their title. | ||||||||||
| The “B” Division matched Creative Industries (Union) against Jerzee Boys (Morris). Jerzee Boys won the opening game of the best of three, 9-8, scoring 3 in the top of the 6th. Creative bounced back winning the next two, 9-4 and 19-12. Creative showed a balanced offense and played consistent defense. Congratulations guys. See you all next year. | ||||||||||
| The “C” Division was played to a double elimination format with defending champions, Survivors (Middlesex) being challenged by teams from Union, Morris and Ocean Counties. The finals matched undefeated Survivors vs Backyard Grill (Union) coming out of the losers bracket. Scoring 3 in the 2nd and 4 in the 5th, the Survivors defended their 2012 crown 9-4. The Survivors have not lost in two years and will probably be moving up to the “B” Division next year. | ||||||||||
