Our first game of the tournament was played on Friday, November 11 in Rocky Mount with a 6:30pm start against the Wilson baseball team. Yes, it was cold...around 38 degrees! The boys had hot chocolate in the dugout and they were fired up to play their first tournament game together! They beat the Wilson team, 17-4!

2nd inning:
Kaden caught a fly ball at shortstop for out #1.
Lukas caught a fly ball at left centerfield for out #2.

3rd inning:
Mike (pitcher) to Isaac (first) for an out.

4th inning:
Lawson (second) to Ian (first) for out #1.
