DSL – Dev Tournament Results and this Weekend’s Championship Matches

Good evening everyone, I wanted to reach out to everyone and congratulate both our JV/Varsity qualifiers for this weekend's championship as well as thank everyone for their efforts this past weekend at the DSL Tournament and acknowledge our winners.  

With respect to the Championship Series, the below reflects those teams that qualified for post-season play and those matches will occur this Saturday and Sunday at Seton LaSalle's Merrick Field.  As a reminder, all players that play in this Championship Series must have been rostered on one of your school's teams, on or before their 4th game of the season.  4th Graders are permitted to play up on JV teams and 5th and 6th Graders are permitted to play up on Varsity teams in accordance with our league rules if such a play up is necessary or desired and does not expose the player who is playing up to undue risk of harm or injury.
