District softball once again anyone’s guess

Wisner-TaylorWith the District 3 softball tournament kicking off today, I thought I would take a look at the 2012 playoff to see how the seeding held up.

It didn’t.

Last season in Class AAAA, the championship game was fourth-seeded Central Dauphin defeating No. 3 Dallastown, 7-6. I was at Millersville University for that title game, it was a great one.

In AAA, No. 3 Manheim Central knocked off Greencastle-Antrim, the No. 5 seed and in AA, third-seeded Kutztown besting No. 4 Annville-Cleona. In A, only two teams qualified so the rule doesn’t really apply.

The point is, with the softball postseason anyone can win. And if further proof is needed, simply look at Monday’s district baseball tournament results where the top three seeds in Class AAAA were eliminated.

We’re officially well into the postseason for spring sports.

Some sports (baseball, softball) are beginning their District 3 playoffs this week while others (lacrosse, tennis, track, volleyball) have either crowned district champions or are very close to doing so.

With that said, it’s time to start recapping the week that was in YAIAA sports.

Favorite Moments of the Year

To kick off the GameTimePA Question of the Week, we hit up the District 3 Track and Field Championships at Shippensburg University so a dozen or so athletes could show how it’s done.  The question was, “What’s your favorite memory from this year?”

We received plenty of good answers and surprisingly only a few shots for the blooper reel. Be sure to submit your own 15-second video using the smart phone app from Tout, or record it with your laptop camera on www.tout.com. Then submit it by addressing it @GameTimePA or @AdamMichaelYDR. We’ll take our favorites each week and post them on the blog.

Without further ado, here’s a compilation of today’s answers.

GameTimePA Question of the Week

As a sports media group, we do our very best to speak with as many players as we can throughout the year. Still, there are plenty of athletes with a lot to say who we unfortunately never get to interview.

With the help of Tout, we’re able to open up the floor to all those unheard voices. Where Twitter allows 140 characters per post, Tout is a video service that allows users 15 seconds of recording time to share brief glimpses into our lives. The program can be found with a quick app store search on any smart phone. You can also use your trusty webcam and internet connection to upload a video at www.tout.com.

Each week we will ask a question to the athletes of the GameTimePA coverage area. Tweet us your favorite answers @GameTimePA so that we’ll notice it. The best answers each week will be collected into one big highlight reel.

Friday, we’ll get things started at the District 3 Track & Field Championships at Shippensburg University. Look for Adam Michael at the meet to answer this week’s question: ‘What’s your favorite memory of the year?’

We will accept online submissions throughout the week as well. Make sure to encourage some of your most quotable friends to enter!
