Quyon adds veterans for the ToC

from Joe McCleary

The Quyon Flyers would like to announce the signings of 3 veteran players to accompany the team to this year's Tournament of Champions in Kitchener. The 3 additions bring the team's average age from 21.5 years to almost 27 years!

Earl Kearns, from Quyon, QC, will make the trek with the club, adding a clutch stick, solid "D", wheels like a deer and a tongue that is never snake bit for words!

Also joining the club is Gordie "Frosty Top" Flannery, the veteran southpaw hurler, from Kazabazua, QC, with an unmistakable laugh that can be identified from anywhere at a ball park.

Rounding out the additions is our secret weapon, out of retirement from Micksburg, ON, the hatless, belt less wonder Lenny Burger. Lenny brings his hard throwing left arm to the club along with his devastating change up (changement de vitesse, for those of you that speak French). We are currently in negotiations with Lenny to suck it up and wear a hat and belt for the tournament. We are also looking into the ISC to see if they can revoke the pitching rule while Lenny is on the rubber, so we can all watch the toe tap in the heat of battle.

The Flyers are very happy to have these 3 ageless wonders who will bring many years of ball experience to our team and help us compete in Kitchener. The Flyers are hoping that we can build on our finish at the qualifier and finish middle of the pack in Kitchener.
