Pit Stop upsets Bank Club in Jack-N-Jill Tourney

The Bank Club was the odds on favorite in this year's OCF Relay For Life Jack-N-Jill softball tournament.  Having won the same tournament three years running they were "the team" to beat. In what was definitely not a pitching duel the Bank Club slugged it out in a very close game with the Pit Stop at Jake Randa Memorial Field. This year the tourney would have a new champion the Pit Stop team. The final score Pit Stop 23-22 over the reigning champs the Bank Club.  Dillon Smith was largely responsible for the upset with two homers. He also touched all three bases and home plate in another at bat.

Wind and cool temps made it seem more like fall than May 30th. The winds caused a lot of dust during the games, but  seem to have little effect on the play of the games. 

In the Consolation Round the Coors Lite Team bested Dawns Never Inn 14-8. Earlier in the  Consolation Round Dawns Never Inn defeated  The Dawghouse 20-1 and Coors Lite defeated Rigoni's 7-5.

Each year the Ojibway Correctional Facility Employees sponsor the Jack-N-Jill Tournament as a fundraiser for the Relay For Life.

The organizers for Saturday's tournament were Mary Lynn Veda and Steve Lehto. The announcer and scorer for the tournament was Christina Morzenti.

The Ojibway Correctional Facility Employees are hosting another fundraiser in June.  The proceeds from that event are used to fund scholarships for area youth tat are entering the Law enforcement field
