On Friday and Saturday, July 24-25, they played in the ETB World Series in Valdosta. The team won their game on Friday night.

When they returned on Saturday morning, they lost the first game in a heart-breaking 13-12. These boys showed true determination in 100+ degree heat, playing the next four games back-toback and winning each of them.

In the game to determine which team would play in the championship, the boys fell short, knocking them out of the World Series Championship game. They received a team trophy for coming in third place. These boys did an awesome job playing together as a team!

They showed what determination can get you. Thank you to their coaches for all of their hard work! You all had a great season, boys!
