The 1st Annual Down2EarthSports.com Shootout is being played in Valdosta, GA this Saturday.  This is a nice little Nationwide Conference USSSA event with 7 Conference teams including #11 Taylormade, #13 Team Combat, #14 Demarini/Dirty, and #16 Team Adiktiv.  I was unable to travel to any of the big 3 tournaments this weekend in California, North Dakota, and Georgia because of flight prices and work but this one looks intriguing.  You have Taylormade who hasn't played in months.  Combat who started to play better in Seattle.  The hot hitting Adiktiv team.  Demarini who seems to be in flux.  And teams like Headhunters, Primetime, and South Texas Posse who all have good teams but really haven't made much noise this season.  The weather looks rough.  Get out the tarps, the shop vacs, and the diamond dry and get er done.

My picks:

1) Demarini – not sure how, but they will put the roster moves aside and play the game in front of them.

2) Combat – team needs points but winning 4 or 5 games in adverse conditions will be tough.

3) Team Adiktiv – Team scores without even thinking about it.  A little 'D' which they are capable of and this team could be in the finals.

4) Taylormade – will beat all of the 'B' and lower teams.

    Gonna be a lot of good games. No bad teams in this tournament. All the local teams are pretty good. May see an upset or two. Wish my team could have been able to play.
