PBR Junior Fall Championships: 13U Bracket Preview
October 6, 2018
Day One of the PBR Junior Fall Championships is in the books and now we can take the time to examine how things shook out and which teams are seeded where on the 13U bracket.
The team with the No. 1 seed earns a first-round bye and that team is the Indiana Bulls 13U Black squad. Their loaded roster helped them manage zero runs allowed, the first tiebreaker, all while scoring a division-high 25 runs. Their zero runs surrendered separated them from the only other 2-0 team in the 13U group: Indiana Bulls 13U White team (they allowed just three runs and scored 20).
While the Black team rests during the morning’s block of games, Bulls White the No. 7-ranked Fieldhouse Pirates (0-2; 20 RA). Pirates drew a tough game one matchup with the top-seeded Bulls Black team and then dropped their second contest to Western KY Outlaws, 10-2. The winner of that elimination game will play the winner of the 9:00 a.m. game between the No. 3-ranked Indiana Bulls 13U Grey (1-1; 9 RA) and the No. 6-ranked Cangelosi Sparks (0-2; 12 RA). The Sparks team held their own in this tournament despite being comprised of almost exclusively 2025s.
That leaves the final 13U morning contest, the 11:15 a.m. game featuring No. 4 Midwest Mercenaries (1-1; 13 RA) and the No. 5 Outlaws (1-1; 17 RA).
The final four teams will play simultaneously at 1:30 p.m. to determine the competitors in the 3:45 p.m. championship game.
