TEAM OVERVIEW
If C4 walks out of PeoplesBank Park this October as the inaugural United Wiffle®Ball champions, they will have made fast pitch Wiffle®Ball history. Under even the broadest definitions of what constitutes a fast pitch national championship, no team has won national titles in four consecutive years. Only Team Trenton (winners of the Cincinnati-based North American Wiffle®Ball Championship in 1995, 1996, and 1997) and the Wood ‘n Bats (winners of the Wiffle Up! World Series from 2005 through 2007) captured three straight national fast pitch titles. A win this in October would put C4 in a class of their own – assuming, of course, that they are not already there.
The 3x defending champs are coming off the most challenging and impressive tournament win of their run. C4 faced a good deal of adversity at the 2019 Fast Plastic tournament and overcame all of it. Kevin Norris’ MVP performance added to his resume as potentially the greatest player of all time. Norris took the ball for C4 several times at the 2019 Fast Plastic tournament and was the pitcher of record in the championship game. Sean Steffy also took on a different role in 2019, taking on a heavy workload for his team before the single elimination round and stepping up when the need presented itself. Ed Packer had his best offensive tournament of C4’s three-year tenure while 2018 Fast Plastic tournament MVP, Ty Wegrzyn, battled through uncharacteristic pitching struggles but still contributed significantly to all facets of C4’s third straight title win. What 2019 proved is that there is no game planning for C4. They are equipped to handle – and thrive in – any circumstances. However, they also have as big of a target on their back as any team ever has. Can C4 make fast pitch history or are the odds this time just too overwhelming to overcome?
