JUNIOR SELECTS AIM FOR BRONZE - Aug. 18

The Windsor Junior Selects will play for the bronze medal today after a pair of losses Sunday at the Canadian Junior Baseball Championship in Charlottetown, P.E.I. The Selects fell 4-3 to the second Quebec entry in the tournament to finish second in their pool and then lost a 2-1 game in 10 innings to British Columbia in the semifinals, which sends them to the bronze-medal game.

B.C. will play the top seed from Quebec for gold while the Selects will get a rematch with Quebec's second seed. Against B.C. in the semis, Brian Simone's solo homer in the second inning put the Ontario champs on the board, but B.C. tied it in the sixth inning and scored the winning run on a wild pitch in the 10th inning.

Bobby Daragon also had two hits for Windsor. In the game with Quebec for first place in the pool, Windsor held a 3-1 lead in the top of the sixth inning, but couldn't hold on. Josh Federico, Paul Lamantia and Simone each drove in one run for the Selects.
