The USSSA State Tournament is hosted by the All-Iowa Attack at their new facility and other locations in Ames, Iowa.  Teams are guaranteed 3 games.

Schedule:
(updated 2/1)
 

Updated 2/1/05:  The Schedule has changed due to the Ames Cyclones dropping out, but our first game is still at 9:05AM on Saturday morning.

The USSSA Midwest Regional is a "round-robin" type tournament, and we are guaranteed SIX games.  All seven 8th grade teams are placed in a single pool, and we play each team once... the team with the best record at the end of the tournament wins, so there is no "championship game".  All games will be played at Ames Middle School.  The Barnstormers' first game is at 9:05AM on Saturday morning... all players should be at Ames Middle School by 8:30AM to get warmed up and for pre-game instructions.
