A Voice from the Eastern Door
A Voice from the Eastern Door
Stewart Peters rounds third base and heads for home. In the background is Chad Back who went down with a twisted ankle. In gritty determination, he hobbled toward second base and dove for safety. At first he refused a runner but his team mates made him leave the field and he received a big applause.
Anthony Tillman sprints across home plate and barely beats catcher Morgan White.
The two-day annual tournament held at Buck Whites Field on St. Regis Road turned into one day because of a lack of teams, but when it was over, the Saints won the championship, and the six teams who entered got in a day of hits, great catches, lots of laughs (intentional and unintentional) and fun all the way around.
The teams were from the Akwesasne Co-Ed league, which took Sunday off to play in this tournament. League play starts up again next Sunday with the schedule below.
