The 40th Annual Busch Classic in Little Rock, Arkansas will be this Friday through Sunday.  180 teams across 6 mens and womens divisions highlighted by the Conference mens and womens Major.  The mens major tournament features 26 'C' and above teams including 3 from the Nationwide Conference USSSA.  Resmondo will be the heavy favorite and will be challenged by the 3 regional 'A' teams.  The winner will receive 180 points!

A few of the umpires are helping put up the livestream so please be patient as it is not in their normal responsibilities to do this and we appreciate their help.  They have 3 iphone cameras, and I believe 2 will be on the Major and one on the women's Major.  The women's Major has 28 teams!.

Shea Nations Picks

This weekend at the 40th Busch Classic Major NIT in Sherwood, AR will have 25 teams and 3 Nationwide Conference USSSA teams in attendance including 1 major, 0 AA, 1 A, 1 B and 22 local teams.  Resmondo/SIS/Thunder/RDD/H.Auto is the #1 overall seed and clear-cut favorite.  The other Conference teams looking to upset the Major team are: VIVID and Wood Law / Olmito Heat / Club Chill.  Also, non-conference teams Play the Game and Steel Sports would like a shot at upsetting Resmondo.

Busch Predictions:  The final 4 undefeated should be: Steel Sports versus Play the Game a local Arkansas team lead by ex-major player Tim Howard and Resmondo versus B&B.  Resmondo should cruise to Sunday as the undefeated team.  In the losers bracket I predict Wood Law to fight its way back to the 4th place game after the Elite 8 upset to Steel Sports.  We could see some upsets from local Texas C team Washouts/Paul Ryan Windows/VSP and local Illinois B team SWIING KIINGZ/OA/ICONIC/SPIDERZ.

Shea's Final Picks for the Busch Major:
1. Resmondo/SIS/Thunder/RDD/H.Auto
2. Play The Game
3. Steel Sports
4. Wood Law / Olmito Heat / Club Chill
5. Washouts/Paul Ryan Windows/VSP
    B & B Drywall
