FOR the second consecutive year, the Bahamas Government Departmental Softball Association’s national team has returned as champions of the WBSC Co-Ed Slow Pitch Cup Tournament.

On Sunday, the team pulled off a stunning 22-11 rout over Great Britain to retain their title won last year.

Slugger Sherman Ferguson was named the most valuable player after he went 3-for-3 with three home runs in the win, including a pair of grand slam homers.

With the win, the Bahamas avenged its only two losses in the four-day tournament to Great Britain.

While the Bahamas finished on top of the standings, Great Britain came in second with Curacao third, Germany fourth, Bulgaria fifth and the Turks & Caicos Islands sixth.
