Plenty of upsets to kick off the inaugural TBA National Championship: Savannah knocking out 11th seed Ft. Lauderdale in straight sets; Clinton Township disposing of Hoover in 4; 4th seeds Bentonville swept by Springfield; New Bedford polishing off the 2nd seeded White Plains Motion; Plano squeaking by Hammond with a 6-0 win in Game 5; Georgetown needing 12 to get home in their decider against Ft. Collins; Watertown upsetting Gilbert with a 10-inning Game 5 triumph on the road.

And, in an all-PA matchup, the favoured Red Roses needed all 5 to get past McCandless.
