Ruby Rutnik tourney played

Under sunny skies with temperatures in the mid-80s, the ninth annual Ruby Rutnik Softball Tournament for girls’ high school teams was played this weekend on St. John.  Friends and players’ parents were on hand in the bleachers at the Winston Wells Ballfield in Cruz Bay.  The games began Friday night with the Antilles School, which Rutnik attended, beating Eudora Kean High School.  Andy Rutnik, father of the daughter who died in an automobile accident almost a decade ago, credited the owner of Starfish Market for the tournament.  "David Mugar said that it would be a good way to remember her," Rutnik said.  Proceeds from sponsorships and donations help finance the Ruby Rutnik Scholarship Fund.
