Soggy Fun at Bobcat Little League Tryouts

Light rain falling Saturday morning failed to put a damper on Bobcat Little League Player Tryouts. League officials and managers graded each player on bunting, batting, fielding, and throwing. The statistics gathered will be used to determine placement on Minor, Major, and Junior League Baseball and Softball teams.

Players will be drafted first to the Major League level, managed by Ed Wilson, with the remaining players drafted between two Minor League teams managed by Toby Salinas and a second yet to be named Minor manager. No draft will be necessary at the Junior level as there are only enough players signed up for one team.

Since player turnout was light at Sunday's second day of tryouts, Player Agent Wanda Wilson scheduled a third tryout date for 10:30 a.m., Saturday, February 26, for Minor and Major girls and boys only. Player drafts will follow Sunday, February 27, at The Rock Church.
