Whitesox struggle in Senior AAA Provincial Championship

The Parkland Whitesox were the only NCABL club to enter Baseball Alberta Provincial play last week-end and the first to ever enter in the AAA division. After strong performances in the elite Kelowna, British Columbia tournament earlier this summer, the Whitesox were confident that they could compete at this level. Disappointment followed as the Whitesox were unable to demonstrate the form they are capable of . After dropping a 7-2 decision to the Red Deer Stags on the first day of the tournament, the Whitesox went on to lose a 10-1 decision to the Red Deer Riggers before managing a 5-2 victory against the St. Albert Tigers. The Whitesox closed the tournament by dropping a 9-1 decision to the Fort Saskatchewan Athletics who went on to defeat the Stags 4-1 in the Provincial Final.
