Seco Vs Muellers


This the second round in the winners bracket and yes we want to stay here. So here's to the Team getting it done quickly to come and show what Seco baseball is all about.
Game time 9am pregame warm up at west gate 8am. We will be home team as we are the higher seed. So any help with the field is appreciated.

Coach's Notes

Team –

There will be practice tomorrow from 5pm to 7pm at Sunset View Elementary (on Columbia Center Parkway – a couple blocks south of Carmike Cinemas). The next game is 9am at the KN Major Field (pre-game at 8am).

Also, I forgot to mention to the kids that I will not be at the game on Saturday. I made a commitment several weeks ago to take Brayden on an overnight trip where we get to spend the night at the Portland zoo. It is a unique opportunity that we couldn’t pass up. Obviously, I made the commitment without knowing what the city tournament schedule would look like. I rolled the dice and lost – which is why I don’t gamble. Anyway, I just wanted you to know the circumstances.

Thanks

Lance

Seco 11 Pepsi 1


Team Seco came through again winning there first game by a margin of 10 ending the game in the bottom of the fifth inning. The saw excellent pitching through out and key hits including a very welcomed homerun in the first by Nick his second of the season to score 3 runs with many hits in between ending with a hit through short to end the game by Eric. There were also some excellent defensive plays on bases where catchers through out the opponent on attempts to steal a base very nice throw down by Tanner and a good glove by Jordan to get the out later Nick would follow with another good throw and fine tag by Cleveland to get the out at second again both ended the inning. Nice Job Team Seco. Next game Saturday 9:00 am at KN1 we will know who we play after tomorrow evening game between Mueller and Larsen which is being played at the KA fields at 5pm Thursday.

Seco Vs Pepsi


The intercity tournament begins for us tonight. We are bracketed as the One seed from kn pitting us against the Ka9 seed which is Pepsi but as the coach's noted last night at practice it is a new season we all have 0-0 records. Team Seco needs to come out with the same fervor that was evident in the regular season and get the the job done.

Game time 7:15pm pregame warm up 6:15pm at Westgate. We are the home team. Who's on the field? Anyone who can help would be appreciated as it has all season .

Pendelton Baseball Classic


Great weekend of baseball I was up near Newport with Lance at a Men's Retreat so we were not able to attend Saturday but we made it back for Sunday. First game in the pool play was against LeGrande Team Seco 10 Legrande 0. This may have provided a bit more competition as the final was Team Seco 3 baker City 2. Sundays first match up was the Spokane Warriors which ended in a Team Seco win 5-1 so we were 3-0 in pool play and would then play at 3pm against the number two seed in the other 12u pool which was Moses Lake Rivercats Team Seco would not finish this one on top but played well none the less. Homeruns in this tournament by David and Taylor excellent hitting and pitching provided a great weekend of baseball. We fared very well considering we were eleven and twelve year olds playing against all twelve year old teams some all star some select. It is always exciting for the players to play teams from different areas that we don't see during the season. If you have not already done it thanks the coach's for the weekend it takes a lot of time and effort to coordinate these weekend tournaments so thanks to the coach's for the huge effort they have put out all season long. Next up the inter city tournament. Go Team Seco.

Friday, May 16, 2008

Hot!

That is the forecast for ths weekend's upcoming temperature's. Have your player start putting lots of fluids away today and come prepared tomorrow in Pendelton for the warmest temp's of the year.

Seco 5 Overturf 4


Team Seco gets the crown! What a nail biter this was as all the games but one game between these two would be decided by one run. Team Seco struck first for a run in the first but that would be short lived as Overturf tied it. Team Seco then went up 2-1 only to have Overturf go ahead 3-2. In the next frame with two on Hayden drove a pitch deep over the fence to put Team Seco up 5-3 Overturf would threaten putting up one more with the score 5-4 Team Seco would weather the storm to hold on and get the win. Both teams provided excellent pitching and fielding. In the sixth Overturf pitching struck out the side to give themselves a chance Taylor would strike out the side also which included Overturf's number one and two hitters leaving there premier power hitter watching from the on deck circle. What a series of games these were with these two and what a way to end the Major season than to take first place in a game like this. This team has worked hard during the season and this past winter to earn the first place finish.

Seco Vs Overturf


It all comes down to this one these two teams are 2-2 with Team Seco taking the last one. The Major Division is up for grabs tonight. Both Teams have played well all season and they have certainly played well against each other.
Only one game has been been decided by more than a run. One thing though win or lose this has been one great season for Team Seco the hard work from the coach's the parents and especially the players who worked all winter to be ready has shown itself all season in games and practices. The season is far from over this maybe the last of the KNYB major division for us but we still have Pendelton tournament and the Intercity tournament to play where this team has a legitimate shot at winning both Go Team Seco.
Game time 7:15 pm Pregame warm up 6:15 pm we are visitors in this one and Wood has the field.

Seco 17 Larsen Transfer 2


Team Seco finished the series 5-0. Team Seco would strike first and by the time the top of the third was over 17 runs were on the board Larsen transfer would get two runs in the fourth but that was all they could muster in this four inning affair. Team Seco would again bat through the lineup and then some. Hayden and David were both intentionally walked in the first but Hayden's next at bat would see him come to the plate with the bases loaded and doughnuts on the score board. They chose to pitch to him and he made them pay with a grand slam home run that was the hardest hit ball I have ever seen at this level of baseball. David would also hit a bases clearing double in this one. the bats were hot and the pitching from Taylor, Hayden, Jordan and Jacob was excellent. On to tonight's game.

Hit-A-Thon Pizza Party

The pizza party went well with the weather cooperating the team had a lot of fun and pizza and goodies. Good job with the Hit-A-Thon Team Seco

Seco 14 Larsen 1


Too much to say here had nine players today due to three players being out of town. Larsen was on the board first scoring one run but that was all she wrote Larsen was not able to get into scoring position again. David pitched well and Jordan came in and pitched two very good innings keeping Larsen from providing any offense. Team Seco had the hot bat tonight home runs from Hayden and David and the rest of the team just provided hit after hit. to keep the game a ten run affair. good job Team Seco.

Hit-A-Thon Pizza Party


Hi everyone,

We will be having our Pizza Party right after the game on Saturday. I will be ordering pizza from Little Caesars – I will get as much pizza as $100 can buy! The boys wanted quantity instead of quality Although, I’ve never had Little Caesars pizza – it could be good too!

Anyway, we will meet at the Highland Grange Park by the Library. Please bring chairs or blankets (we may not get there early enough to snag picnic tables…) and BYOB – bring your own beverage If anyone wants to add to the pizza with side dishes (salads etc.), you are welcome to bring it. I am assuming that there should be enough pizza for families too…

You might want to bring some outdoor toys for the boys – tennis rackets & balls, basketballs etc… There are bathrooms there for the boys to change out of their uniform too.

Seco 10 Larsen Transfer 6




Team Seco gets it done. this was a tight game for a while seeing Larsen Transfer get on the board first. Team Seco would not be denied and soon had the lead. Larsen came back and took the lead with a grand slam home run. soon after though Team Seco would take the lead and not look back. This was the first of three consecutive meetings between these two.

Seco vs Larsen Transfer


This is the third meeting between these two teams young teams can be hungry for a win. Hope to see Team Seco get the bats rolling early and take it to them and not let up.
Game time 7:15 pm Pre game 6:15 pm we are home team in this one Smiley has the field.

Seco 14 Sullivan Rowell 8


What a game this was. Team Seco would get on the board early with a nice three run homer by Nick his first of the year soon after David blasted one over the right field fence and Jaden Green hit a bomb over the left center for his first of the year. Sullivan Rowell would not be denied and soon had come within one. Team Seco answered with multiple hits through out the lineup and soon had a commanding lead. Sullivan Rowell threatened a bit in the bottom of the sixth but Team Seco closed out the game nipping the possible comeback.

Tuesday, May 6, 2008

Seco Vs Sullivan Rowell


The last time these two teams met they went into a seventh inning with Seco getting the win it was a tight game and well played and excellent pitching from both teams. Heads up play from both teams made it a great game from the homer that Hayden hit to tie the game to the heads up base running by Taylor to win it in the seventh. Hope to see Team Seco bats light up early and hope to see another Team Seco win.
Gametime is 7:15 pm with pregame at 6:15 pm at westgate we are the visitors in this one Simmelink has the field after the game

Seco 9 Apollo 2


Another fine performance by Team Seco. Apollo would get on the board first leading 1-0 but team Seco would not be denied putting up runs in the first second and third innings. Team Seco never looked back and continued to put up runs through the fifth. the Teams bats were hot with key hits when needed excellent base running and some stellar plays defensively and excellent pitching throughout. This was the final meeting between these two as was Gesa the other night Team Seco is 5-0 against both of these teams. We will move on to Sullivan Rowell wednesday.
