The
Screaming Eagles (along with their coaches L-R: Larry Eberle, Kenny Dunagan
and head coach Donnie Whisenhunt), pose with their trophies after their second
place finish Sunday Aug 1, 2004 in Blue Springs, Missouri.
The
Screaming Eagles first won their 26-team pool with the following victories:
| 2-0 |
Outkasts (Indiana) |
| 1-0 |
Northern Polars (Minnesota) |
| 1-0 |
Elk Grove Heat (Illinois) |
| 6-4 |
Tornados (California) |
| 8-0 |
Outkasts (Indiana) |
The Eagles then played in the finals and won their first game:
| 3-2 |
Olathe Rockets (Kansas) |
Before losing in the championship game to a nearby Tulsa Team:
| 0-5 |
Mavericks (Tulsa, OK) |
Collinsville's Kelli Dunagan pitched all but three innings and had a perfect
game (in the 1st game against the Outkasts) and later a 1-hitter.
