Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 14

The Junior division started up last night on Field 1 at Governor’s Field in Carson City, NV.  There are three teams in District 1, Carson City, Centennial and Reno American.  Tonight Reno American faced Centennial… the game ended up going an extra inning!  A good close battle that ended 8-10 in favor of the “visiting” Centennial.  Carson City will face Reno American Thursday to decide who will play Centennial for the Championship on Friday.

Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 8

Whew, tonight is over!  This is our seventh year doing either the Renegade/Hooligan Tournament (2008, 2012) or the All Star Tournament (2007, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013) and this is the first year we’ve had an official lightning delay!  Fires popping up on the foothills around us tonight as the weather put on a light and sound show….  This of course pushed the evening very late… so just a quick post here….

Here’s the Photo of the Day, I can’t pass this one up, this was a game changing homer… South Tahoe’s 12’s team went into the top of the 7th inning tied 2-2 with Carson Valley… this homer and the next batter’s homer changed EVERYTHING at the field, it really deflated the Carson Valley team….130703_South Tahoe LL_Photo of the Day
