*** INVITATIONAL UPDATE ***

Thanks to all of the law schools who have already registered teams for the Spring Invitational!  Spots for teams are filling up fast, particularly in the Co-Rec Division.  A lot of the traditional powerhouses are already signed up, as well as some teams from schools making their first appearances in the tournament.  We'll post a list of teams on the Invitational page early in the Spring semester.

We'd also like to remind everyone that registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.  Once your team is successfully registered, we will send you an email confirming your registration.  Feel free to contact the Tournament Directors if you mailed you completed registration forms but haven't heard from us.

The lights were bright.  The air was crisp.  The fans were boisterous.  For the second straight year, the softball playoffs had nudged their way into December.

The Chalk vs. Shaw-ty's Little Law Review semi-finals match-up was as contentious as we were expecting it to be, with several lead changes throughout the game.  In the end, however, Shaw-ty's held onto a late-inning lead to advance to the Co-Rec finals.  Their opponent -- Gus -- was waiting in the wings.

With the stage set for the final game, to be held subsequent, most of the fans present couldn't help but acknowledge the monumental importance of the ensuing event.  Shaw-ty's, a team of 2Ls also known as "K-Lite," were the reigning Co-Rec champs, having captured the Spring 2009 crown just a few months prior.  At the other corner of the ring,Gus -- a.k.a. The North Grounds Bombers, a.k.a. The Evil Empire -- had a long legacy of Co-Rec titles, having won 8 championships in the last 12 seasons.

The game started at 7:45pm.  Gus jumped out to an early lead thanks to 3L Andrew Mellen's lead-off home run, which caromed off the top of the left-center field  fence.  Shaw-ty's pulled even in the following frame, but Gus tacked on three more in the bottom of the second to make it 4-1.  Shaw-ty's wasn't going to keel over easily, and 2L Tripp Parks launched a bomb out of the yard and tied the game 4-4 in the third.

Not to be outdone, Gus sluggers Stephen Wendell and Brendan Thomas responded with homers of their own, and Gus sustained a rally in the middle innings -- thanks in large part to clutch plate appearances from Kristen Bromberek and Sarah Davis -- allowing it to solidify a lead that would prove insurmountable.  Final score:  Gus 10, Shaw-ty's 6.  (For those of you keeping track at home, that is 9 titles in 13 seasons for the bad guys.)

So congratulations again to the champions of the two divisions:  Gus and Suhey's Stepdads.  We can't stress enough how awesome this season was, despite the horrific weather.  Thanks to EVERYONE who captained, umped, played, and came out to watch the games.

Now study hard.  The Spring softball season is right around the corner.

- 30 nov - 


This weather sucks.  We're going to try to (finally) wrap up the Co-Rec playoffs on Tuesday, December 1 down at the Park, starting at 6:30pm.  No more postponements (we hope).

- 19 nov - 


Congratulations to Suhey's Stepdads, who lit up the Hooligans on Wednesday night, 29-6, to earn the Reg. Division Championship.  From pretty much the start of the game, the Darden guys turned the match-up into a non-event for the initially-enthusiastic collection of fans (mostly 1L girls) who had bundled up to come out and cheer on the law school guys.  Beer and Baked Lays kept the crowd's morale (and the fluorescent signs they made in support of the Hooligans) high for the first few innings, but , with every ball that sailed over the fence from a Stepdad's swing, the fate of the championship became clearer and clearer.  Despite the blowout, we had a great time.  Thanks to all the teams for an awesome season in the Reg. Division!

In the Co-Rec Division,  Gus defeated Cannibals 22-12 to earn a spot in the championship game.  Chalk and Shaw-ty's Little Law Review are set to compete for the other spot in the finals, but, as a result of heavy rain on Wednesday night and Thursday, it looks like their game (and, as a result, the Co-Rec finals) will have to be pushed back.  We will update the schedule once we have an idea of when those games will take place.

- 18 nov - 


The Reg. Division championship game is set, with 1L upstarts Hooligans slated to play Darden vets Suhey's Stepdads Wednesday night at 7:45pm under the lights at the Park.  We're going to be in attendance to watch the big game, and you should be too.

In the Co-Rec Division, we finally have our final four:  Cannibals, Gus,  Shaw-ty's Little Law Reviewand Chalk.  Cannibals vs. Gus will occur on Wednesday night at 6:30pm under the lights at the Park, and Shaw-ty's vs. Chalk will go down at the same time on Thursday night.  The Co-Rec final is currently scheduled for 7:45pm on Thursday night, barring any weather delays.

- 16 nov - 


We've had to do some shifting  of the finals schedule as a result of weather and other such things.  Be sure to check the calendar for the most up-to-date scheduling information about the remaining playoff games.

- 15 nov - 


Torrential downpours postponed playoff action in both the Co-Rec and Regular divisions last week, but not before the Cannibals managed to knock off #1 seed (and previously unbeaten) VaSE, or before Suhey's Stepdads absolutely demolished Dream Team.

As for the current playoff picture...

In the Co-Rec division, Chalk and Cannibals have already earned two of the four semifinals spots.  The other two spots will be determined on Monday and Tuesday.  The semis will go down on Wednesday night.

In the Reg division, Suhey's Stepdads have already advanced to the finals.  Danny's Stepdads and Hooligans will duke it out Tuesday night for a chance to play Suhey's in the championship game.

Both the Co-Rec and Reg division finals will go down on Thursday night, starting at 6:30pm.  (We recommend that you be there.)

Last week was a busy one for the ol' softball league:

Fall Playoffs

This past week was all about upsets, with some of the top teams in each division getting sent home early.  In the Co-Rec division, Stone Cold Sober knocked off #12 El Facial Challenge with a convincing 13-6 win.  VLBR similarly shocked Hoo Tang Clan, who had earned the #2 seed in the playoffs after going undefeated in regular season play.  The #3 seed, Gophers, also saw its season come to an end when 1L champion Tenacious D pulled off a thrilling come-from-behind victory.

In the Regular division, Suhey's Stepdads walked all over once-dominant LCS.  Danny's Stepdads earned a convincing win over #4 Warriors.  The big story, however, was the Hooligans' 14-13 shocker over #1 seed Wet Dream Team.  Despite having lost four out of five games in the regular season, the Hooligans (comprised of 1L guys), have shown improvement in recent weeks, and have earned themselves an unlikely spot in the semifinals as a result.

Now that we're getting deeper into the playoffs, we'll be scheduling some games to be played at the Park under the lights in the evenings.  Check the schedule and come out to watch some of the games!

NGSL/HRSP Golf Tournament

The first-ever NGSL/HRSP Golf Tournament, sponsored by Proskauer Rose LLP, was held Sunday at Birdwood Golf Course.  The weather cooperated for us, with temperatures in the low 70s and clear blue skies above throughout the event.  At various times on the course one could hear hoots and cheers coming from nearby greens as teams sunk their birdie and eagle putts.  In the end, the top teams posted impressive rounds, with the first, second, and third place teams scoring 58, 61, and 64, respectively.  Thanks go out to all the players and supporters for helping make the tournament a success.  All proceeds from the event went towards the Human Rights Study Project.

Drunk Division

On Sunday afternoon, Better Name Pending and Fiduciary Bags squared off to determine which team would win the fall drunk series.  The teams scored modestly and evenly in the early innings, but the 'Bags pulled away late in the game, earning the win and taking home the coveted M. Tyler Brown Cup (after sipping a victory brew from it, of course).  Congrats, 'Bags!

- 2 nov -


Congratulations to Tenacious D, Champion of the 2009 1L Tourney!

Section D did not have an easy ride to the championship this past Saturday.  Seeded 8th headed into the tournament, D was an unlikely victor, to put it lightly.  It started off the day at 8am, defeating Section A, the #9 seed, by a score of 12-10.  In its second game, Tenacious D edged out #1 seed "I" of the Tiger 20-16 in nine exciting innings.  In the semis, D made quick work of #5 El Facial Challenge, routing Section E by a score of 30-6.  By 3:30pm, the two remaining teams--D and H--were visibly exhausted.  But D's stamina proved more important than H's previously undefeated record.  In the championship match, D outlasted the Hoo Tang Clan, 6-4.

Of course, we'd like to thank all the sections--both players and spectators--for coming out on Saturday.  The event was a huge success, and we loved how much energy everyone brought to the fields throughout the day!

The 1L Tourney bracket with final results can be found HERE.

playoffs update

we had a great time watching the first round of the playoffs this week, which included a bunch of close and exciting games. 

that said, we were sad to see so many 1L section teams get knocked out early; only four are advancing to the second round (and el facial challenge has yet to play).  the most exciting section team win of the week goes to the a team, who edged out the big boppers in a rematch of a recent regular season game.  a late-in-the-game rally put the boppers up in the top of the seventh, but section A came right back in the bottom of the inning to earn the walk-off win, 14-13.

we also had to say goodbye to two of our most lovable teams this week, baby carrot and the jedi softball team, each of which lost pretty badly but did it in style. 

the journal teams saw more success, with 3 out of 4 advancing to the second round.  kudos to vlbr for a particularly dominating performance in the first round. 

captains will have the entire next week to schedule games, but should note that there are no longer game slots at 5:00.  before automatically trying to schedule games for friday, might we suggest checking out the weather forecast; the first half of the week is looking very nice.

updated playoff brackets for both divisions can be found HERE.


- 30 oct -


the 1L tourney is all set to take place tomorrow at copeley and the park.  we're excited for a full day of sun, fun, and fierce competition.  all of the information, including the schedule and brackets for the tournament, can be found HERE.


- 28 oct -


ALL WEDNESDAY PLAYOFF GAMES WILL BE HELD ON THE PARK TURF FIELDS.

games originally scheduled for copeley will be held at the far turf field.  those orginially scheduled for the park will be held at the near turf field.


- 25 oct -


thanks to captains and players for getting in so many make up games last week.  the postseason seedings are set.  game slots are open starting monday afternoon, so get those games scheduled.

the final week's power rankings are now up.

the fall season playoff brackets can be found here.

PLEASE NOTE:  power rankings are different from playoff seedings.  while the power rankings may take record and run differential into account, they are intended to be a reflection of our subjective perceptions of each team's relative talent/momentum/power at a given point in time.  the playoff seedings, on the other hand, are determined by an objective system for ranking teams based on record and run differential at the end of the regular season.  as a result, do not expect that your team's power rank for this week will be equivalent to its seed for the playoffs.  in many cases, the two will be different.


- 24 oct -


DUE TO TRULY UNPLAYABLE FIELD CONDITIONS AT BOTH COPELEY AND THE PARK, THE 1L TOURNEY WILL BE POSTPONED UNTIL SATURDAY, OCTOBER 31.

We know this is an inconvenience to people but there is no way we can allow games to be played on the fields today.  We apologize, and hope that the weather will cooperate better next weekend.


- 22 oct -


The Fall Season Playoffs

We will be publishing the official seedings and brackets for the playoffs for both the Co-Rec and Regular divisions on Sunday evening.  In both divisions, it will be captains' responsibility to get in touch with their first round opponents and schedule their games.  All first round games should be completed by Friday, October 30, so schedule  your games early, if possible.  Captains are to email us at uvalawsoftball@gmail.com to reserve field space for their playoff games.

During the playoffs there are certain constraints on who may play on what teams.  In the Regular division, students must declare allegiance to a single team throughout the entire playoffs.  In the Co-Rec division, students may play for one "unaffiliated" team (i.e., your friends)  and unlimited "affiliated" teams (i.e., journals, sections, organizations, alumni groups).  This remains true until the semifinals, when students must declare allegiance to a single team for the rest of the way.  After the semifinals, if the team you have decided to play for loses, you cannot play for another team that is still alive.


- 19 oct -


MACHO Tourney

Thanks to everyone who came out on Saturday to watch and play in the MACHO Tourney.  The weather held up better than expected as the contending teams fought it out at Copeley and The Park.  In the end, the big hitters from Darden, Suhey's Stepdads, took the crown, defeating runner-up Sweater Puppies not once, but twice on the way to the championship.  Congrats, 'dads!

1L All-Star Games

Weekend softball play didn't end there, though.  The 1L All-Star Games went down at The Park on Sunday, with three games being played over the course of the afternoon.  The players, who were selected by their sections to play in the games, bundled up and showcased their skills in front of friends and fans.  In the first game, Co-Rec 1 (Sections A thru F, mostly) defeated Co-Rec 2 (Sections G thru L, mostly) 18-8.  In the second game, Co-Rec 4 (Sections G thru L, mostly) beat Co-Rec 3 (Sections A thru F, mostly)  by a score of 13-7.  Finally, in the third game, The Fonz (Sections A thru F) beat Team Whatever (Sections G thru L) 10-7.  Congrats to everyone who played on Sunday, and thanks to everyone who came out in spite of the less-than-ideal weather.

Make-Up Week and the Playoffs

Last week was the final week for regularly scheduled softball games in both the Co-Rec and Regular leagues.  This coming week is reserved for making up games that  were postponed or otherwise left unplayed during the first five weeks.  The playoffs will begin next week.

We would like to encourage captains to make concerted efforts to get as many of their postponed  games in during this week.  We anticipate that there will not be enough spots in the playoffs for every team, and we will be considering the "thinness" of  teams' records in addition to looking at wins and losses when seeding teams for the postseason brackets.

The final power rankings of the regular season will be published on Sunday, after the completion of the make-up week's games.


- 18 oct -


The 1L All Star Games will be held on PARK FIELD #1 today.  Co-Rec Game A  begins at 12:00pm.  Co-Rec Game B begins at 1:15pm.  The Men's Game begins at 2:30pm.


- 16 oct -


***MACHO TOURNEY PLAY WILL COMMENCE AT 8AM ON SATURDAY MORNING.***

the competing teams and the official tourney bracket can be found HERE. 


- 15 oct -


ALL THURSDAY GAMES POSTPONED DUE TO UNPLAYABLE FIELD CONDITIONS.

please do not attempt to play or practice on copeley field today.  captains should follow the appropriate procedure for rescheduling games.


- 13 oct -


***OFFICIAL NGSL PRESS RELEASE***

We must issue a public apology for our glaring oversight regarding the astounding play of 1L phenom Doug Hance last week.  In his latest feat of superhuman softball ability, Hance completed an unassisted triple play.  This is quite possibly the first-ever unassisted triple play in NGSL history; it certainly is the first time it has been noted in the record books (although, to be fair, NGSL great and soon-to-be first-ballot NGSL hall-of-famer James Nelson could have completed one of these every inning if he so desired...thankfully, his kind heart let the rest of us play). 

In any event, through his stellar defensive play, Hance (captain of both The A Team and The Hooligans) demonstrates once again that his knack for getting people out seems to have a negative correlation with his knack for winning softball games--his teams are sporting a combined 2-7 record this season.

ANNOUNCING THE FIRST ANNUAL NGSL/HRSP GOLF TOURNAMENT

for the first year ever, north grounds softball league and human rights study project are teaming up to put on a captain's choice golf tournament.  the event will be held at birdwood golf course on sunday, november 8th.  all proceeds from the event will go to benefit the human rights study project.

if you have any questions about the event, please email stephen wendell at stephenwend@gmail.com.


- 11 oct -

fall break cut week four into two, equally exciting parts.

in the co-rec division, vase housed schmalzbach surprise, dethroning the law reviewers and staying unbeaten themselves.  "i" of the tiger played twice, earning its first and second wins and rocketing up the ranks.  hoo tang clan extended its win streak to four games with a win over tenacious d, and the comrades rallied past previously undefeated force majeure, whose players failed to accept their first loss gracefully.

in the regular division, nick mosvick executed a one-man walk-off win over the lowly hooligans.  lcs continued its win streak with a thriller over warriors 2.  and dream team edged out danny's stepdads in a copeley shootout.

finally, this is the week to sign up for the MACHO tourney.  you have until thursday.  do it.

the week four power rankings are up.

- 9 oct -


the 2:15pm match-up between stone cold sober and redcoats will take place on park turf field #5, due to aeration on park field #6.  all other games are as scheduled.

week three got cut short by some wet weather, and we're bummed we didn't get to see the friday match-ups as a result of it
.  still, we witnessed some nice action out on copeley nonetheless:

in the co-rec division, hoo tang clan edged out kamikaze in a 7-inning thriller.  tenacious d earned the win over the comrades in a similarly close one.  and, in a battle of who could care less, the jacksons beat the a team to get their first win of the season.  but it was schmalzbach surprise's doubleheader this week that earned it the top spot in the division, with a record of 3-0.

in the regular division, wet dream team remained #1 with a late game surge and a win over suhey's stepdads.  lcs also stayed undefeated by beating the winless hooligans.  and what an experience to watch nick mosvick singlehandedly take down the lollipop guild.  wow.

the week three power rankings are now up.

we'll have updates for everyone later in the day.


- 20 sept -


thanks everyone for a great week of softball.  we got to witness some awesome games during week two:  

in the co-rec division, we loved seeing shaw-ty's little law review complete the walk-off victory over overrated gus.  the force majeure vs. big boppers contest wasn't the hot-hitting, tight-fielding game we were anticipating, but it was a perfect showcase of section softball done right, nonetheless.  our favorite dark horse winner of the week was section g's gunners, who whittled away at the comrades' lead, overcoming the evil empire late in the game for win number one.

in the regular division, we got our first glimpses at what look like some pretty formidable teams.  suhey's stepdads dominated the hooligans, while both the legal center and school and playing hardball showcased their strength in a virtual home run derby on friday.  we're also keeping our eyes on 1Ls ten, who we think could be a threat come the playoffs.  finally, we can't fail to mention the impressive performance displayed by wet dream team in its convincing win over former favorite dream team.

this week's power rankings are now up.


- 18 sept -


ALL FRIDAY GAMES ARE ON, BUT THE 10:30AM, 11:45AM, and 1PM SLOTS ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED FOR COPELEY WILL BE PLAYED AT THE PARK TURF FIELD #5 .

also, we'd like to remind winning captains that you are to email the scores of your games upon their completion to uvalawsoftball@gmail.com.  thanks, and keep the great competition going.


- 11 sept -


thanks to everyone for an exciting first week.  we saw a few sections make strong debuts (big boppers, force majeure, hoo-tang clan), while others (gunners, l diablo, jedi softball team) were able to bond with each other in defeat.  sections a and k put on an extra-innings contest in what was likely the week's most thrilling game.

in the greater co-rec league, the law review players asserted their superiority over members of VJIL once again, and VaSE stomped all over libel junta, an act that will most certainly draw retaliation come showtime in march.  the 2L drunk team beat the 3Ls in the first of an intoxicating 5-game series. 

finally, in the regular league, the dream team showed skeptics that the bats are still hot, registering a one-sided victory over JAG's warriors 1, while 2L wannabes wet dream team edged out mosvick in both teams' debuts.

more analysis to follow in the week 1 power rankings, which will post late sunday.


- 09 sept -


WEDNESDAY GAMES ARE TENTATIVELY ON.

games at the park will be played on turf field #5 rather than field #6.  games at copeley are on as well, but questionable field conditions and forecasts for rain later may force us to postpone some of the afternoon games, depending on what happens with the weather.  as a result,  captains and umps should check email regularly today.

the season schedule is up!  check out upcoming games on this page, or follow the "schedule" link for a full calendar of the fall season.  we hope you are looking forward to getting out on the field as much as we are.

also, be sure to head over to the power rankings page for an overview of the teams that will be competing in the co-rec and regular divisions this fall.  starting next week, we'll be ranking teams by division based on their performances on the field.  we'll also post final scores daily, so check back every now and then to see how everyone is faring...


- 05 sept -


thanks to everyone who came out to dandelion.  the parade was a great success, and all of the sections' performances were awesome.

particular mention should go to the winners of dandelion, section i, for putting on a great skit, "'i' of the tiger."  don't get too high on yourselves, though: we couldn't help but notice the weak follow-up performance you all brought to copeley field.


- 03 sept -


update - dandelion

the dandelion festivities will kick off friday afternoon at 4:30pm down at the superfields/park pavillion (beside the D3 parking lot).  the parade itself will begin promptly at 5pm, and will progress section-by-section in alphabetical order.  we are looking forward to seeing everyone there, and we are all expecting to see some killer performances. 

update - fall season schedule

we are working hard to schedule all of the matchups for the fall softball season.  we are hoping to have the first week's games schedule posted on this site sometime on sunday afternoon.  be sure to check back then for game times and locations for the coming week.
