Turns out, the old men still got game!
After being relegated to the losers’ bracket on day one, Falcon Camp Services’ fastball team came all the way back to go 4-0 on Sunday (Aug. 16) and claim the 2020 Spruce City inter-league tournament title.
This included a nail-biting 11-10 victory over Falcon Contracting in the final, which consists of some of the team’s sons and were even shut out by them 11-0 Saturday night (Aug. 15) to start the two-day Prince George tourney.
