Reusing this photo from subregionals for today’s post - this crew of Justin Barleben, Eric Harvey, and Jeff Sell are representing WNYUA and Section 6 this weekend at the state tournament in Binghamton!

Semifinal games start today at 10:00 AM, finals tomorrow starting at 10:00 as well.

Congratulations to our AAA regional crew who worked the Niagara Falls v. Christian Brothers game last Saturday!

We are incredibly proud to have been able to put NINE umpires with college officiating experience on subregional games yesterday. Congratulations to all three crews!

Congratulations to the WNYUA crews who earned 3-man postseason assignments on Tuesday! We also had 5 other 2-man crews working quarterfinal games across Erie County.

WNYUA crews are back at it tomorrow for both AA semis, a B semi, and the A2 final.

Test time!!! This was the question on the NFHS test that most people missed. Only 39.67% got it right. What say you?

With a runner advancing to third base, the second out is recorded at first base. The first baseman,
wrongly thinking the play was the third out, tosses the ball to the base umpire who catches the ball and
holds it.

A. With the runner advancing, the ball stays live and in play.

B. The ball is immediately dead.

C. The runner is awarded third base.

D. B and C.
