Professional and college scouts travel to this hotbed of baseball to watch the best teenaged players competing, head to head. As the only Canadian representative in the 40-team pool, the Halton Athletic Club U-16 squad left town with very humble goals. HAC returned home with a final record of 3-1-1 having established a reputation south of the border of being a first class baseball organization. An early 8-7 loss to the Grand Rapid Reds (Ml) was Halton's only setback. In game two, HAC played the WNC Sting (NC) a 19U team and defeated them 7-3. On day two, HAC defeated the Greenville Marlins (TN) 11-1 and in a late afternoon thriller played Liberty Baseball (SC) to a 3-3 tie. The Liberty team featured 10 players who are currently playing in or committed to college baseball programs. In the last game of the weekend, HAC defeated the Carrol County Rangers (MD) 8-6. Oakville athletes who played major roles in Halton's tournament success are Chris Baluschak, Ross Corley, Ryan McNabb, Chris and Ian Miersch, John Pagliacci, Julian Richards, Gord Robertson, Daryl Ringwald, Jarred Smith and Reid Whybrow.
