P.A. Jays win Boisson Memorial championship, Angels win A/B

Jun 12, 2016 | 7:39 PM

The Danny Boisson Memorial Super Tourney has ended, and one of the titles is staying in Prince Albert.

The P.A. Liteway Electric Jays won the C Division, beating out their city mates in the Prince Albert Under-18 Astros 16-2 Sunday at Prime Minister’s Park.

The Jays ran the table all tournament, won all five games they played and scored at least 11 runs in all their group stage games.

Although still minor ball aged, the Astros climbed all the way to the finals and beat out the R&W Custom Pirates 11-2 in the semis. But the Astros ran out of gas as they were playing their third game on Sunday.

The Jays scored eight runs in the first inning and didn’t look back.

The Astros’ catcher, Nick Basaraba, was named to the Team Canada junior softball team earlier this week.

A/B Championship runnin’ down to Saskatoon

The Saskatoon Angels won the senior men’s A/B championship early Sunday afternoon with a 9-2 win over the Delisle Diamonddogs.

Both teams had a number of players originally from Prince Albert. Angels second baseman Brett Casavant was a standout, as the former Astro went 2-3 with two runs scored. Diamonddogs leadoff hitter Brad Bibby scored the first run of the game for Delisle.
