The End Has Come

Team Seco was knocked out of the intercity tournament on Friday evening by Kania Clinic. Great run these kids had this year with combined total of 30 wins and 5 losses which takes into account the intercity tournament and the Pendelton Baseball Classic. They concluded the regular season 23-2 winning there last game of the  season against Overturf by a margin of 5-4 sealing the KNYB Majors Division Championship for the Team. They were also the Hit-A-Thon top seller in the Majors Division. Awesome group of kids and parents cannot say enough about the help the parents were with the fields and other things from the Hit-A-Thon to practices to the hats and jackets other assorted things that went on during the season. The Coaching staff was and is excellent helping to get this team ready before the season and keeping them on track during the season. Great job by the staff Team Mom for all the email and hard work behind the scenes to keep it all going and always keeping us informed on what was coming way before it was happening. I have been assembling a dvd slideshow of the season and should have it ready this coming week for those who don't see I will contact you on how to get it to you. Last the season ending party how good was that the bats for the kids were awesome and how hard can Anne Tanninen work? Big thanks to Anne and the other ladies for a well planned party with awesome food and treats. Thanks to a great baseball season this will be the last entry here the blog will stay up and the photos also will stay accessible for now if that changes I will email you before that changes. I will be updating the photos this week with last of them from the tournament and party. You can keep up with 12 all stars at http://knallstar12u.blogspot.com/

Seco Vs Kania

Second time against this team the first game ended in a 2-1 loss in 7 innings on Monday. We need to get the win tonight to move on and be able to play Overturf twice in the championship Saturday. Overturf took Kania out in 8 innings last night. So let's play tight like last night put the bat on the ball and get the job done Team Seco.

WOW awesome game tonight just a stellar job by all the team to keep it together and get the lead and hold it shutting out one of the best teams at KA and eliminating them from the tournament cannot say enough about how solid this team was on the field tonight to get a lead and hold it.

Team Seco pulled this one out after being behind twice in the game. The boy's played through it kept there heads up and found a way to win. team Seco started it of with 1-0 lead which would dissipate quickly soon we found ourselves down by about 5-1 but we would come back to tie it at 5-5. Jordan came in to take over the duties on the mound in the second and did a excellent job helping to get some outs and keep it close. Soon we saw firefighters up 7-5 again though Jake reached safely and to second on a errant throw to first Taylor hit a sac fly to bring it to 7-6 David would reach base safely to see Hayden step up and hit a blast over the center field fence 10-7 Seco and that was all she wrote for that one.

Seco 1 Kania Clinic 2

Well if you were not there you missed a dandy that was simply a pitchers duel between David, Taylor and Hayden figured in the extra frame. Both teams pitching had batters reeling at the plate. Finally in the bottom of the fourth Taylor doubled to eventually score the first run of the game. The lead would be short lived though as Kania came up in the top of the fifth to tie the score at one with a runner on first one out and a tie score Kania hit a deep fly to center caught by David and checking the runner at first he throws a perfect strike to Hayden who held on the get the runner before he could return to the base ending the inning. Team Seco had a chance to win in the bottom of the sixth but it was not to be extras frames were needed and Kania would eventually score during the tie breaker.

Seco Vs Kania Clinic

This will be the third round in the winners bracket in the intercity tournament. We staved of the loss on Saturday and will look to get another win Monday.
Game time 7:15pm Pregame warm up at West gate 6:15pm We will be home team as we are
the higher seed. We are at KN1 on the major field. One other note I updated the brackets on the schedule I have saved based on what I saw at the field today. Sullivan Rowell took out the first seed at KA which was KCFCU they are now in the losers bracket while Sullivan will play Overturf Monday. 8 Teams remain in the majors bracket 4-KA 4-KN the difference being the KN teams except Apollo are all in the winners bracket good job KN. Overturf took down Zips and they were eliminated in the losers bracket. They were a third seed at KA. So anything can happen. As in our fourth seed in Sullivan Rowell taking out the first seed KCFCU. Let us hope to see a ready and heads up Team Seco tomorrow lets look like the Team that took care of business this season. Go Team Seco

Seco 7 muellers 5

A bit of of a gut checker for Team Seco in this one. The start was quick for Team Seco David sent the side back to there dugout with no rewards and as soon as Jake stepped in the second pitch was sent over the center field fence, David stepped in and followed with a shot over the right field fence.By the fourth Team Seco had managed 4 runs and Mueller's 1 the top of the fourth brought a bit of a change as Mueller's began to pick away at the lead and soon had it at 5-4. the bottom of the fourth saw the bases loaded two outs two strikes with Taylor at the plate he lines it to the fence for a two run double shifting the lead to Team Seco at 6-5 Seco would put up one more 7-5 and Taylor would close the game to shut down Mueller's in the fifth and the sixth. On to Monday's game with Kania Clinic who beat Apollo Saturday.
