2044 IPA REGULAR SEASON COMES TO A CLOSE
The Wynnamac Sundowners, Crystal Lake Crushers and the Red Bluff Red Sox won dramatic showdowns to capture three of the eight spots in the IPA Pro Cup playoffs. The Sundowners had to win a tense three-way playoff from last year's division champ Sugar Valley and Elnora to take the Ruthlandian East pennant. It was the second time in three seasons they have won the division. The Crushers held off the Waleska Westerners in the Ruthlandian South by 2 games to garner their second title in a row and third in five seasons. The Red Sox edged out the South Fork Stallions in the Tycobbian East race, also by a pair of games. The Stallions won the division the previous three seasons. This was Red Bluff's first division crown since 2009.

All of the other division champions won fairly comfortably. IPA Defending Pro Cup holder Valmara whipped Claxton by five games in the RU North to get a chance to repeat as the Islandian champion. Rocky Rapids finished five games ahead of the Middlefield Roosters and Forest City Lumberjacks. The Snappers ended a 25-year postseason drought. The Southport Sun Sox ran away with the Tycobbian South, winning an IPA-best 104 games and coasting in 17 games better than the Summerland Sunsets. That gave the Sun Sox three division titles in a row. In the TU West the Kenwood Wildcats had a fairly easy time, topping Denton City by 7 games. It was the Wildcats third pennant in four seasons. North Hills won its 10th flag in the last 11 years in the TU North, but it was a tough task. The Hawks won by only four games in a season-long struggle with Luxora, Hartsdale and Blue Lake.
