Inside the Week of Wiffleball
*February 12-18*
 
 Another exciting week of GKWL action has been put to rest as we motor towards winter break.  New teams have registered, a team has changed their name, the website has been revamped, and the Cougars pulled one out to start the week, so lets get started on this week’s wiffleball action.
 On Sunday February 12, 2006, the Cougars and the Bums took the field in 21 degree Fahrenheit weather.  The Cougars quick start and spectacular defense was essential to a victory.  The bats were hot as the bash brothers cranked lollipop pitches for grand slams.  The world champion Cougars now hold a five game winning streak after a 17-4 victory in Connor Dowd’s Cougars debut.  He played flawless defense, but didn’t show too much promise at the dish, cranking in only one RBI on the afternoon.  Cougar ace, Scott Fitzpatrick, iced a win, improving to a career record of 26-4.  A positive start to the week for the Cougars.
 In other notes, the league expanded during the week from 4 teams to 6.  The Mountain View Vipers are returning as a team of nearly all rookies.  Captain Jake Pasanen returns to the wonderful world of wiffleball, but the team lacks experience as Liam Collins, Pat Stegemoeller, and Devon VanDervoort will all debut next week.  Also, the team formerly known as the Cricket Court Killers will now have a new identity.  Get used to the name.  The Brunswick Fighting Irish.
 As the league expands, so does the schedule.  League officials have come up with a temporary schedule for July and August, featuring a 30 game season with a July tournament, and an All Star Game set to take place on August 19th.  Some game have already changed and will take place next week.  Yep, that’s right.  The regular season will open on Thursday, February 23.  The likely matchup is Cougars vs. Fighting Irish, but nothing is set in stone.  Stay tuned for updates regarding that issue.
 Seen the website lately?  If not, check it out.  It has been blown up and redone over the past week.  Now, standings will appear on the homepage, player profiles are currently in the works, and a new layout is up.  We are working hard to give you all the updates on the wiffleball universe.  We will now be updating the condition of Triscari Field.  Whether to expect gameplay or not.  Check out the live weather feed to see what precipitation is heading our way.  This week was good.  Warm, and except for a few occasions, the field was dry.
 Well, that about wraps it up for this week’s article on Inside the Week of Wiffleball.  Winter Training is here, and games are being scheduled every day, so stay tuned and don’t forget to read next week’s wiffleball insider.
