They may not scratch and spit like the pros, but those kids can flat out play field. (Not that I watch much)

There is a Houston team there, Lamar I believe....but they've lost once so I don't know if they are out of it or how it works.

We had a local team from Tallmadge, Oh make it there and then lose their first two games.
All of them are definitely good ball players.

This year? I believe I watched them play. All good games and they move along at a good pace too. I always root for the little bitty kids. There was a 63lb. kid on one of those teams, and on another a 6 foot 180 lb kid! (check his birth certificate!)  So far I like the MA team.

Yep this year. The coach of the team was on the last Tallmadge team to make it to the LLWS. I think the won the Great Lakes Division and were wearing green and gold uniforms.

A team from my area are playing in the LL World Series (Chandler, AZ). Every news station has been at the pizza place next to our gym for every game that's been on ESPN. They've been doing great. Not sure how they did today.
