Fall Ball Wrap-up

The Knights Fall Elite Travel Team wrapped up a successful fall ball season which saw the Knights make it to the finals in two of the three tournaments they competed in.

In their final tournament, the "Classique d'automne 2008 des Orioles de Montréal", the Knights faced Académie MVP, a team they had beaten earlier in the tournament by a score of 4-3. Despite solid pitching, hitting and fielding, they lost a hard fought contest by a score of 6-3.

It's now on to a fall conditioning camp in preparation for the winter training camp that will start in early 2009.

Knights U16 End Dream Season 2008

The Ottawa Knights began their indoor training camp in January. Several months later, in mid-April, the Knights U16, 2008 team was raring to go, leaner than a year earlier and deep in talent. Coaches, players and parents, familiar with the talented players chosen, had a feeling that this was a formidable team, possibly destined for a dream season. Were they ever right!

The Knights corps of starting pitchers ( 4.22 ERA) was second to none, supported by a group of equally phenomenal infielders and outfielders (.949 fielding) and hitters (.353 average) that deservedly could be dubbed the" Big Blue Machine".

The Knights finished their season with 39 victories and 19 losses, for a winning percentage approaching .700. In their final 40 games their record was 33 wins, 7 losses.

The Knights had outstanding tournament success winning three in the USA (Penn State, Watertown and Long Island) and two locally (ONC and Knights Tournies). In their last three tournaments, incredibly, 8 of their wins involved the mercy rule.

Coaches, Adam Salter, Rick Frobel, Klaus Hoppner, Dan Herback and John Crabb are to be congratulated, they are proud of every player and the team's tremendous achievements.

The team celebrated their season with an end of year party in late August.

15U: Season Highlights

The Ottawa Knights 15U team is wrapping up the 2008 season and what a season it was!

In June 2008, we participated in a 16U tournament in Indian River and won both games to qualify for the semi-finals. The highlight of this tournament was our game against one of Puerto Rico's All Star Travel Teams. After 3 hours of intense play, the Ottawa Knights were successful in winning the game by 1 run.

The Team then finished in first place for the AABC 15U category qualifying them for the Regional Games in Albany NY. We made it through the 1st round and then lost the 2nd round in the bottom of the 7th inning of our second game.

The Knights continued on to Baseball Heaven in Long Island NY for the East Coast Championship games. We did it again, won all 3 games qualifying for the semi-finals. Unfortunately, we were unable to secure this win to move into the Championships.

We are now preparing for our Fall season and for our 2009 Season.

Ottawa Knights 16U walk away with 5th Tournament win of the season !!

The Ottawa Knights U16 elite baseball team finished their dream season winning the East Coast Nationals 16U tournament at Baseball Heaven Park in Long Island, New York over the weekend. Coaches Frobel, Hoppner, Crabb and Herback had the players in the "zone" once again. Knights starting pitchers, Charlie Crabb, Casey Floyd, Cory Herback and Scott McRae went undefeated giving up just seven runs in five games. Homeruns by Evan Hammond, Wes Hoppner, Ryan Meek and Steve Renaud helped power the Knights offence who tallied an incredible fifty runs over the tournament. The victory was the Knights fifth tournament win to cap a dream season that fittingly ended at Baseball Heaven Park. A season for the record books, wow!
