This year’s Aptos Little League 10-year-old All-Star team is a mix of 10-year-olds, 9-year-olds and one 8-year-old.
All the kids love the game of baseball and never want to leave the field.
Their drive to play really showed in our local District 39 All-Star Tournament. We had to battle back in every game to win.
In one game, we were down 9 run in the top of the last inning and scored 12 runs to win the game.
It’s been a great All-Star run so far and we are still playing. We are headed to Section 5 tournament in Los Gatos starting on Thursday the 14th.
