14u: LBC Makes Most of Travel, Last Team Standing at Don't Boot the Loot.

LBC National 14u put together a strong run through pool play, going 3-1 and securing a spot in the semifinals, where they would take care of business in an emphatic way on Sunday, not giving up a run and putting up 15 runs split between the semifinals and championship games.

The offense would pick up right where it left off in the semifinals in the first inning of the championship game as Austin Doane would drive in the opening run of the game on a single into center field. Things would continue to roll in the second inning as well as Senate Loeffler and Truett Middlebrook would hit back-to-back doubles on back-to-back pitches to make the score 2-0 heading into the top of the third.

PG Select Festival alum Noah Vrzal would continue to roll in the third inning, as he did in the first and the second, and throw up another scoreless frame to get the offense back up with a chance to do even more damage. The offense would go silent in the third inning for LBC National but would pick right back up in the 4th inning as MV-Pitcher Antonio Romo would show off the two-way prowess and hit a triple with two-outs and would later come around to score on a balk.

Vrzal would come up with a big swing as well in the fifth inning, hitting a triple to drive in a run to continue adding onto the lead. Eventual MVP of the 14u age group, John Drew Mundine would follow that up just a few batters later with another extra base hit to continue pouring it on in the 5th inning.

Both offense would go quiet for the rest of the game and LBC would wrap things up with a 7-0 win, taking home the championship at the Don’t Boot The Loot Invitational. A truly dominant run where they avenged their only defeat of the tournament in the semifinals.

13u: Astros Defend Home Turf, Take the Title

The East Cobb Astros 13u and CBU 13u Biglin put on a show in pool play with one of the better games of the entire event and would square off again in the championship game with everything on the line.

CBU would jump out to an early 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning as Hudson Straw would hit a single through the left side to drive in the first run of the game. The runs would halt for a couple half innings until the bottom of the second inning where the Astros would strike back after MVP Colt Carter would double and later come around on a Bear Richardson single through the left side. Wyatt Huffman would follow that up just a few pitches later with a double and make the score 2-1. Trey Vandergriff would walk later in the inning with the bases loaded to make the score 3-1 heading into the top of the 3rd inning.

Parkes Vogt would come up with a huge swing in the bottom of the 3rd inning, hitting a three-run home run. CBU would come back in the top of the fourth inning after a double from Tucker Farrar and later come in on a ground out to the first baseman. On the next pitch after the ground out as Luke Griffis would hit a single back up the middle to continue cutting into the lead for CBU.

After a few walks in the fourth, the score would be 10-3 heading into the fifth inning and the Astros would add another to secure the run rule, winning the 13u age bracket of the Don’t Boot The Loot Invitational.
