Nationwide Conference USSSA!
August 30th – September 1
Tournament Preview
2019 Conference Championship Bracket and Team List Link
The 2019 Nationwide Conference USSSA Championships take place this coming weekend, August 30th – September 1st in Viera, Florida at the USSSA headquarters at the Space Coast complex. The "Red" baseball quad and the stadium will be used for the tournament and the baseball fields have the same dimensions as the stadium 325-365-385-365-325 and are all artificial turf. All 4 Major teams and the top 6 'AA' teams in the country will play to jockey for the final points and seeding for the USSSA Major World Series which is held September 18-22. #2 Resmondo still has a slim chance to overtake #1 TDB for the #1 seed at the major. To do so Resmondo would have to win AND TDB finish 5th or worse according to my calculations. Conference 'A' teams are playing the 'A' Worlds so they will not be in the Conference Championships but also cannot lose their current seed. The tournament will use the Dudley Stadium ZN on the baseball fields with a 16 HR limit.
The Conference Championship banquet is scheduled to take place in the concourse at the Stadium on Saturday evening. Remember that the number of All Conference 1st and 2nd team awards are given out based upon where each team finished in the regular season standings and players that joined their team after May 1st are not eligible.

POINTS SCENARIOS
Resmondo is the favorite to win the event as they have done well on the big fields this year but TDB who won the regular season Conference points standings and Dan Smith who won the first Hall of Fame Dual Major back in April will be their biggest competition.
The tournament starts Friday at 3 PM eastern time and teams play into the night Friday as many as 3 games. Then the tournament resumes early Saturday morning with the loser's bracket, and into Saturday afternoon. The tournament then pauses for the Annual Nationwide Conference Awards banquet and finishes up on Sunday.
USSSALive.com will have stationary cameras on all of the games and I believe the Banquet Awards.
USSSALive.com will now charge $4.99 for a 30 day access to its streaming content.
The chat room here at SoftballCenter.com will also be up all weekend.
Conference Awards Banquet is Saturday evening!
All fields used in the Conference Championships are 325-365-385-365-325

Poll Results – 54% picked Resmondo over TDB 33%.
This tournament has been won 3 of the last 7 years by a team outside of the top 2…
Weekend Weather – Hot and humid with a chance of rain like normal in Florida is the forecast but tropical storm Dorian is also headed towards Florida and winds from the storm could reach Florida on Friday or Saturday.
I will try to update this storm path each day.
