the remainder of the season. 10 of 13 teams voted and unanimously agreed to allow
them to play out the season with us, as follows:
PA Mentor plays every team once, but the games do not count in the standings.
Wins awarded due to JRT forfeits will remain in the standings.
A revised schedule is posted with the new games; no other schedule changes were made.
PA Mentor will always be the visiting team, so the opposing/home team must provide the game ball and field equipment.

Additionally, PA Mentor will fully participate in the tournament, bringing us to 14 teams again, and these games will count.
