Saturday's Recap
by Alex Smith

Saturday in the Valley was reserved for the boys and girls high school tournaments as the 33rd Vail Shootout got underway. In the Dr. Tom Watts Memorial Tournament (otherwise known as the U-19 boys showcase), pool play marked the first day as the teams settled out into Divisions I and II. Everything pretty much held to form as Baltimore and Colorado took their respective conferences on Ford Field, but the surprise of the day was in Avon, as Arizona won Conference D over perennial Vail powerhouse Ohio.

Arizona was a bit of an enigma on day one. After rolling through Long Island and Saskatoon relatively easily, Arizona pulled the upset of the tournament by beating Team Ohio 6-5. But then, the first year team from the Southwest followed that up with a head-scratching loss to Double Stixx from the Southeast. However, Arizona's win over Ohio was good enough to take first place in the conference. Their reward is a match-up against defending champion New England, who finished second in Conference A to Team Colorado.

Colorado's 8-5 victory over New England was sweet revenge for the "home" team after being dismantled by New England in the quarterfinals last year. Team Colorado ran the table in pool play, shutting out the first two teams they played. They face an intriguing quarterfinal game against Team Ohio on Sunday.

Out in Avon, Arizona's overtime loss to Double Stixx was one of three games that went to extra time. Double Stixx also went to overtime against Saskatoon in Conference D. Long Island's young team wasn't quite up to task in moving into Division I play and they will match up against Idaho in the Division II bracket.

In Conference C, Delaware took care of business by sweeping through the bracket. Their biggest competition was NorCal, who played the Eagles team to one goal. NorCal also bested Bethesda by one in the fourth overtime game of the day to take second place in the conference and move themselves into the Division I quarterfinals.

In Conference B, Baltimore did not leave a whole lot of doubt as they cruised through Day 1. The team of MIAA All-Stars was not seriously challenged all day while rolling to first place in the conference. Gateway finished second to move on to Division I.

All four quarterfinal games are fairly interesting. The first one of the day features Delaware and Gateway at 9:00am. That game is followed up by Baltimore against NorCal at 11:00am, Arizona vs. New England at 1:00pm and Colorado vs. Ohio at 3:00pm.
