We scored 5 runs in the third and fourth innings, so the umpires had to call that inning and switch sides. Wow!

We scored 2 runs in the first and second and 5 runs in the third, fourth and fifth innings!

FINAL SCORE: US 19  South Wake 9

After the game, we loaded up the players' lounge and packed our cars...then headed over to the Double Tree to meet up with the 8U West Raleigh Blue Team at the pool for some pool time, pizza and just hanging out! What a GREAT day!!

With our record of 1-1 at the end of Saturday...our team was put into the Silver bracket for Sunday while our 8U team was put into the Gold bracket. So...Coach Lance set a 9pm curfew for the 7U boys because we had an 8am game on Sunday!
