NBC ~ National Baseball Congress Tournament

[Veritas]

Not sure what has happened with this once prestigious baseball tournament.
Has anyone attended any games this year. How’s attendance?

Big question which should be answered by Wichita leadership is why aren’t any games played at Riverfront stadium? Are all the games played at Wichita State now?

All Kansas championship between Hutch and Hays at Eck.
I’m surprised there is not much outcry with no games at Riverfront.
Might be a better fit in Omaha.

Congrats to Hays!

It’s just not the same. It’s basically just a Kansas regional tournament now. Not sure it even warrants a place at Riverfront with how poorly it’s attended now.

Did Santa Barbara not come?

As a kid, it seems it was a pretty big deal. However, it always seems I was able to get free tickets through a grocery store etc….
$18k for first place barely covers travel expense.

Next year, if I can remember, it would be fun to set up a bracket challenge or something for this since it's such a dead period.

That’s a great idea!

Santa Barbara was in the quarterfinals. Monarchs beat them.
