FORT MYERS, Fla. – The sixth annual WWBA Sophomore World Championship will host 114 of the top 16u travel ball teams across the country from Sept. 22-26 in Fort Myers, Fla., kicking off a run of World Championship events this fall.

Twenty-two states will be represented at the Sophomore World Championship, which will also host teams from Puerto Rico and Ontario.

BPA has a pair of highly-ranked prospects in Seth Hernandez (No. 13, RHP) and Billy Carlson (No. 14, SS). Canes 16u Scout Team will be loaded, with Coy James (No. 21, SS), Everett Johnson (No. 27, OF), Zion Theophilus (No. 33, RHP), Boston Kellner (No. 38, SS), and Eddie Zaun (No. 69, SS).
