*****From the Winston-Salem Journal at www.journalnow.com on-line and this on the Piedmont Triad 4-A Softball Tournament*****
In the Piedmont Triad 4-A, softball semifinals were to have been played at Southwest Guilford at 4 p.m. Friday, and the championship was supposed to be later Friday night. The conference saw the field at Southwest and determined it was not going to play.

“I understand through all of the text messages that there wasn’t a facility that was playable,” Marty Stanley, conference co-commissioner, said. “Unfortunately, they had to cancel it.”

Northwest Guilford will be the top seed from the conference in next week’s state playoffs, and Glenn will be the No. 2.

“If it would’ve stopped (Thursday) afternoon, I think they could (have played),” Stanley said. “But it rained so much (Thursday) night that it was almost impossible to get the fields playable.”

    Gesell homers and Nifong drives in one on a sac fly. HPCA leads Wesleyan 2-0 after the top of the first.

  2. AD Glenn Foster from Wesleyan:
    HR by Nate Blakeney pulls Wesleyan to within 1. 3-2 HPCA in the 4th inning.

  3. Michael Lindsay on English Street or Michael English on Lindsay Street, from the HP Enterprise on Twitter, Michael Lindsay:

    HPCA 3, Wesleyan 2 heading to the fifth…

  4. Getting ready to leave out for another baseball game and I hope somebody will drop that final score in here for us…
