Tournament Director Note: Blue Chips finished with a 3-1 record and allowed only six runs in their four games of pool play to take 1st place from the round robin portion of the tournament. Several of their players needed to leave after their 8:00 am Sunday game to make it to Ann Arbor in time for a University of Michigan softball camp. This left them with only six players and unable to compete in the championship game, so the next two teams in the order of finish for pool play were entered into the championship game.
