2016 Nationwide Conference USSSA
37th Annual Busch
Arkansas Major
Little Rock, AR
July 1-3
AllOut bats against Vivid in the championship Sunday
AllOut/PowerhouseSportz/IzzySports a new Conference 'A' team from Texas broke through and won the Arkansas Major. They knocked off rival Vivid/Klutch/Worth (AA) 41-40 on Saturday night in the winner's bracket finals with the gloves in their hands in the bottom of the 7th. Then on Sunday after losing in the first game of the championship to Vivid 33-28 they came back in the heat to win the second game 29-14 and their first ever Conference event. Vivid who was playing without Isaac Gonzalez (with Team USA) finished 2nd and really could have used those first place points. Olmito Heat/DiamondKingz/Miken who had a wild 41-27 Saturday night win over Seminoles and a nice 35-19 win over Steel on Sunday morning finished 3rd. And Steel who won over Nightmare on a walk off grand slam 46-44 Saturday night finished 4th. All of the final 4 teams were Nationwide Conference USSSA teams from Texas. AllOut earned 186 points moving them to 20th in the standings and with a couple of low scores that they could replace anything can happen.
I would like to give a big thanks to Adam Ussery, Jason, and Chris Walker for helping with the livestream cameras. They did a great job all weekend!
