State Softball Tournament Site Change

First of all, congratulations to all of the qualifying State participants in Track, Tennis and Softball! I hope the weekend brings you success! Well done, you make our school and community proud!

On a scheduling note, we have had some last minute changes in the State Class B-C Softball Tournament. Below is the correspondence I received from the Montana High School Association Executive Director, Mark Beckman:

Because of the current level of saturation in the Glasgow fields, and in consideration of the weather forecast for the next four days, the State B-C Softball Tournament has been relocated.  Activities Director Willie Thibault and Principal Marj Markle have monitored the conditions closely and have been in communication with the MHSA throughout the last few days.  Although Glasgow remains enthusiastic about hosting this event, Willie, Marj and Glasgow Chamber of Commerce representatives have agreed that it is in the best interest of the players, coaches and fans to relocate.  The new location is Great Falls at the Multi-Sport Complex, and Willie Thibault will continue as Tournament Manager.  The scheduled days of the tournament remain May 26-28, 2011, as previously published.

The tournament will start on Thursday afternoon at 2:00 p.m. and there will be a coaches meeting at 12:30 p.m. at the Complex.   Brian Michelotti, MHSA Assistant Director will be the MHSA representative at the tournament.  If you have any questions please contact Willie or Brian.

Thank you for your understanding and hopefully better weather will be on the way.

I hope everyone is able to get out and support our kids. The Montana A & C State Track Meet is in Missoula at the MCPS Statium at Big Sky High School starting on Friday, 27, 2011. As outlined above the State Softball Tournament will remain on May 26-28, 2011, but in Great Falls.

Good Luck to One and All!
