AAABA Tournament Bracket Set

By Mike Tressa

JOHNSTOWN, Pa. —

The 68th AAABA Tournament is all set to start Monday in Johnstown. The pairings for the tournament were selected at a banquet at the Cabria County War Memorial Sunday. Johnstown tournament champion Berkley Hills will officially open play at Point Stadium in the night game against Philadelphia. The game set for 7:30 p.m., after the AAABA Parade from the train station.

"As the champion of the league you want to play your best baseball," said Renegades manager Larry McCabe. "The supporting cast is going to be there, the city's going to be behind us. We're looking forward to playing a very good game."

The second Johnstown representative, Martella's Pharmacy, is in the top half of the bracket and will face New York at noon at Point Stadium.

"They were in the Altoona Regional so we're going to try and get some information off them," said Martella's manager Chris Pfiel. "How they played there. Who their hitters are. But it's about us playing our game. We're going to give the ball to Mike Mulvey tomorrow and we have all the confidence in the world."
