After finishing the regular season in first place the Thornhill Reds are set to challenge for the league championships this weekend at Bishops Cross.
Joining the Reds are the Markham Mariners, Leaside Leafs and Newmarket Hawks, making up the entire field for the double knockout style tourney.
The Reds take on Markham Friday night in game one and have played four close games with the Mariners this season. The Reds are missing some key players this weekend, as Tyler Cattapan has returned to the US for school, Brian MacDonald has work commitments, Sean Cunningham is injured for the year, Steve Palladino and Andrew Bergman are pitching for the University of Toronto, Len Wood is playing for Guelph University, J.R. Crosby is unavailable Sunday, Miguel Sammy is out of town, Vic Simon is unavailable, and Steve Wilson is away Friday. None the less the Reds will battle with all other hands on deck, and should be tough to beat.
