Coyotes in tournament play tomorrow
By RICK WATERS
The North Mason Coyotes, a
15-and-under baseball team, fin-
ished its season with a 19-6
record, good enough for second
place in the Black Hills Baseball
League against programs from
Olympia, Rochester, Port Angeles
and Tenino.
"Our goal going into the season
was to finish at .500," said assis-
tant coach Jack Johnson. "What
is even more impressive is that
more than half of the team was
either 13 or 14 years old."
Head coach Bill Geyer added
his assessment of the season.
"The younger members of the
team knew coming into the sea-
son that they were not going to
play much; the kids understood
and learned a lot more about the
game instead of playing on a 13-
and-under team."
Both Geyer and Johnson felt
that the younger baseball players
were not getting the baseball
training they needed to prepare
them for high school ball. So they
formed the Coyotes to offer young
players a better chance to prepare
for the high school ranks.
BEFORE THE season began,
Geyer and the coaching staff had
a little dilemma with the 14-play-
er roster: most of the kids were
infielders and so it was difficult
switching some of the kids to play
the outfield.
As expected, the team came out
of the gates a little slow. But the
team started to pick it up in the
third week. Since then, the
Coyotes reeled off 14 wins in 15
games. The highlight came at a
three-day tournament in Cheha-
lis. 'Tee were playing teams that
had been playing together since
they were 13," said Johnson. "We
wound up taking second in the
tournament, with one of the wins
against hometown favorite Che-
halls, who had won the state
championship when that group
was mostly 13.
"Our team learned a lot while
playing in tournament games,"
said Johnson. "They also bonded
as a team," The coach said team
members learned that tourna-
ment ball differed dramatically
from the regular season. "Instead
of going to McDonald's after a
game," he said, "they found them-
selves having to get ready to play
Ace Paving plays in state
Another North Mason team
has advanced to state tournament
play. The Senior Babe Ruth team
from North Mason - Ace Paving -
follows in the footsteps of the
Stingers (girls' 10- to 12-year-old
fastpitch) and the North Mason
Little League All-Stars (boys, 13-
14 years old).
Ace Paving takes a 34-8 record
into the state tournament, which
began yesterday in Moses Lake.
"I'm really pleased with how
the kids have played this year,"
said coach Mark Hansen. "We've
picked up a few more players to-
wards the end of league play; this
should make us very competitive
in the double-elimination tourna-
ment."
Three of-those new players
come from North Kitsap. They in-
clude Craig Morrison, Ryan
O'Connell, and David Camas.
Kristian Dahl joins the team from
Klahoya High School.
ACE PAVING IS one of 10
teams competing in the Senior
Babe Ruth League for boys 16-18.
This season, the North Mason
team finished second overall to
Port Angeles Wilder in the Olym-
pic League Babe Ruth circuit.
The Pavers won their division
to earn the state berth. Port An-
geles is also in the nine-team
tournament.
Ace Paving drew a bye and
faces the winner of the Federal
Way Buzz-Moses Lake River Dogs
game.
During the season, North Ma-
son pitching duties have been

in stolen bases.
Other offensive threats for the
North Mason team include Drew
Randolph, who's hitting .446 with
4 homers and 38 RBIs; Landon
Fryer, .422 and 29 RBIs; Lance
Byers, .373, 15 RBIs; Chris Wil-
liamson, .368, 3 HR, 25 RBIs; and
Greg Huffman, .364, 1 HR, 12
RBIs.
Byers has also stolen 14 bases
in 15 attempts while Minnis and
Fryer are a perfect 5-for-5. Other
base thieves include Randolph,
who's 3-for-3, and Williamson is
six out of seven in steal attempts.
