LIVE: From the Under Armour Southeast Regional Wood Bat Tournament - Day 4
Dave Lax: We're ThereElimination Day is here and some teams as expected moved onto the final day of play while other teams had some surprises for the entire tournament. Upset was the name of the game in the first set of games. Although the teams that were playing were only a few seeds apart it seemed that the team with the lower seed kept on winning. The Florida Pokers took out the always dangerous Atlanta Blue Jays 3-2 in a great game. The Florida Pokers went on to beat the #2 overall seed All American Prospects Red team 4-2.
Most of the big names in the tournament held true to form as they moved easily into Day 2 of elimination. Chet Lemon’s Juice beat a stingy Treasure Coast Young Guns squad 3-0 to advance. The All American Prospects Navy avenged an early pool play loss to the Broward Mavericks to move into the final eight. Line Drive Baseball had the most convincing win blanking the Pirates Prospects. The Palm Beach PAL dispatched of the Baseball Factory Red team 10-2 after the Baseball Factory Red edged out their counterpart Baseball Factory Navy in the first round of games.
The big surprise of the day was the upset of #1 overall seed DiamondVision Elite. The Palm Beach Clippers who were a #17 seed took out the top seed in the tournament with a 3-2 win. So as it turned out both teams that were undefeated lost their opening game and were eliminated from the tournament along with 14 other teams.
We look forward to our final day of the 2008 Under Armour Southeast Regional Tournament. Who will be playing at the stadium at the Roger Dean Sports Complex? Who will take home the crown? Will it be a top seed or one of the many underdogs?
Check back tomorrow for a recap of the entire event.

Thanks for the updates. Will there be an All Tournament Team with scouting reports on the players? From what I saw there were some outstanding 2010 players especially 2 from the Juice in James Ramsay and Roderick Shoulders as was a player on the All American Prospects Red Team named Eric Arce who was their 3 hitter and seemed to mash the ball everytime he was up to the plate. These 3 players, according to the rosters appear to attend the same high school near Tampa. Can you please confirm?
The school is 5A Brandon High School in Hillsborough County.
