Games were held between stars in each of the three divisions (Junior, ages 8- 10; Senior, ages 10-12; Ponytail, ages 13-15;), with the afternoon ending with a game between the coaches and managers of the various teams.

The winners made their move however, and pulled out the thrilling one-run triumph. The victorious all-stars were coached by Don Kensala of the Beauty Box, Rich Hudjera of Buss Ford, and Mary Ann Knaack, who managed Globe Sales during the season.

Gina Bennett of Otto's Girls drove in the winning run to break up the well-played contest.

The coaches and managers then ended the day with their own game, in which the girls served as umpires and managers. The contest was won 23-10 by the Good News Bears over Qinky's Pirates, and it went just the way everyone figured it would-rotten, but a lot of fun. As the rain came down, so did many a player. The girls made the most of their opportunity as managers, giving orders from the bench. A constant chatter- slide, slide...get on that base...don't let that ball get away...don't throw the bat...run, run, run--was heard throughout the contest. When it was all over, and another Pigtail league season had ended, each of the all-stars received a trophy and a silver medal. While not every girl was able to participate in the all- star games, the fact that several players with the ability to be all-stars were not able to play due to the size of the teams, it serves to show the high calibre of play which earmarked a most successful season.
