Crosscutters, Wilder team up on American Legion summer baseball; tryout set at Civic Field
The Crosscutters and Wilder Baseball Club moved in step for the 2019 American Legion summer, coordinating efforts while remaining separate organizations. A joint tryout was set for 5 p.m. Sunday, May 19 at Civic Field in Port Angeles to organize rosters for the season [1].The plan stationed the Crosscutters’ Single‑A group (7th–9th graders) in Sequim at Sequim High School with a 35–40 game slate, while Wilder’s Junior and Senior teams worked under their coaches at Volunteer and Civic fields in Port Angeles [1]. The emphasis was widening opportunities for ballplayers from the Hood Canal Bridge to Forks, and the program circulated contact details for coach John Qualls to families preparing for summer baseball [1][2].
