Fellow Kickballers,
KVKL would like to welcome Henrys, Channel 6, and Miltons to the 2009 roster. Â That said, here are the newly minted Conference/Division alignments:
Jayhawk Conference
John Brown Pool
Pita Pit, Henrys, Free State Brewery, Astrokitty Comics, Blue Collar Press
James Naismith Pool
First Blood, Mad Greek, Red Lyon Tavern, Slowride Roadhouse, Open Sky Landscaping
Carrie A. Nation* Pool
Jazzhaus, Yellow Sub, 23rd Street Brewery, West Coast Saloon, Channel 6 Toepokes
Wakarusa Conference
William S. Burroughs
Sacred Sword, Tellers, Miltons, Liberty Hall, Girls w/ Low Self-Esteem
Lucy Hobbs Taylor* Pool
Love Garden, Eldridge, Replay, Weavers, Solidarity
Langston Hughes Pool
Screamers, Eastsiders, Rangelife Records, Wildman Vintage, Miss Fortunes
Each Pool has a 1 thru 5 seed (team on the far left being the 1, far right the 5). Â Armed with the best information possible, the KVKL Board ranked the teams 1 thru 30 then placed them in Pools. Â The Pool's are aligned SUBJECTIVELY to present the most balanced schedule possible. Â We think this will provide for excellent match ups all season long. Â A half-season schedule will be released shortly after the captain's/co-captain's meeting.Â
*We are proud in honoring two significant women in Northeastern Kansas history. Â See the links below for more information.
